North Lake to South Lake ride- Aug. 3

[boborobba]

I am hiking the South Lake to North Lake loop starting Sunday August 3rd '08. I had arranged for shuttle service early in the planning, but now apparently, there are no more shuttle services being offered out of the Bishop area that I can find. Anyone doing the same on that date that has space for one? I'm willing to contribute toward expenses. Thanks, Richard

Hi,
I may be interested in setting something up. I am trying to decide on where to go during this time period, and this trip is one of my possibilities. Are you going to be starting at South Lake or North Lake? Your title says "North Lake to South Lake", but in the body of your post you wrote "South Lake to North Lake". I'd prefer to start at North Lake, and if you were going to start at South Lake we could just drive each other's car to our starting points and go from there. That way our cars would already be waiting for us when we finished. Is your permit to begin hiking on Sunday, 8/3? Also, I may decide to postpone a trip until the end of August due to the air quality, so I'm watching that closely. I'd hate to go through all the planning and have poor visibility. Okay, that's it. I know this all souinds vague, but there is the possibility we can help each other out. Let me know. I am an infrequent poster on the Whitney Message Board, which is where I saw your post initially, which directed me to this site. This is my first post on this site, and it looks like a good resource!
Thanks,
Brian
