Other than the obvious rental car, is there some other method I'm missing? I hate to spend $250 on a rental to basically just park it at the trail head for a week. But I doubt an hour ride in an Uber is any cheaper or even possible.
I'm looking at expanding my menu farther out. Just kicking around numbers:
Flying/Rental
$547 for a flight, rental and gas.
Driving own vehicle entire way
$151 in gas (plus wear and tear)
Driving rental entire way
$401 for rental and gas
Flying is actually making some sense, especially since it cuts 8 hours off the travel time.
