Some people can arrange their own transportation to and from the trailheads or around the trail gaps. Many others will prefer to pay someone to drive their groups. Similarly, some of you will be willing to make your own hotel reservations, and others may prefer to have that done by someone more experienced. When the cost is shared among the members of the group, it may be quite reasonable. We are not personally familiar with most of these services. We present this information for your convenience; it is not a review or recommendation.
