Groovy, man.  Hey, can someone help me with this transportation issue.  I'm flying down from Alaska to Redding on August 25th.  Will take the RABA Transit express to Burney on the 26th and need to get to Burney Falls State Park from there.  The bus arrives around noon into Burney.  There doesn't seem to be any taxi service and I'm a little old to hitch hike, but I could try.  I'd probably end up looking like the California homeless.  The State Park is about another 14 miles.  Does anyone know of trail angels in the area or other ideas on transportation?  I was going to try and get there in time to hike about 14 miles to Peavine Creek to camp.  I've been section hiking for the last 5 years and am doing Burney Falls State Park to Ashland on this section.  Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated!

My favorite quote from John Muir....."I only went out for a walk and finally concluded to stay out till sundown, for going out, I found, was really going in."

      I do.  Love 'em.  Great read around camp at 
        night although they are getting a little dated.  But when your 
        dated yourself they make good company.  mountain mike

          Nobody carries the wilderness press guide books 
          anymore 
so they have no awareness of anything special about the 
          places they 
travel through. It's all just 
          miles.

As always Diane, well
