On Saturday, July 30th, I arrive in Reno around noon.  I plan to hike the PCT from I-80 to Burney Falls (end of section M).  I am trying to plan transportation to the trailhead.  Other than hitching, it seems my options are limited.  Unfortunately I am not arriving during the week day otherwise the Crest bus (http://easternsierratransitauthority.com/wb/pages/bus-routes.php) might get me down the road closer to my destination.  I see there are some shuttle services going to and from the airport (http://www.northlaketahoeexpress.com/airport-transportation).  Is my best option going to Truckee to get to the PCT?  Where should I get off so I can purchase fuel (JetBoil canisters) and then get to the trail?  My options in Truckee are Larkspur Hotel/Truckee Tahoe Inn, Cedar House Sports Hotel, or Truckee Train Depot.  Lastly, any suggestions on getting to the trailhead?
 
Hoping the snow melts lots this week!
