If you don't find a trail angel to give you a ride, you will probably do 
much better if you bring a sign such as "hiker to Burney Falls SP" with 
burney falls in big letters.

> 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!
