Hiking Yosemite National Park
Hitchhiking to and within national parks?

What with the $3-4 gas these days, its become a bit pricey to visit
the more distant national parks with my trusty old clunker. So I was
thinking of resorting to public transportation, and then if need be
hitch-hiking the rest of the way. For example, with Yellowstone,
taking the bus to Cody, then hitch-hiking the rest of the way. Does
anyone have much experience with this? Are there enough people
willing to pick up a heavily gear-and-supplies-laden dude? Do the
rangers object?

Now, I did bus to Yosemite once*, but I was able to rely on public
transportation the whole time, except for one ride with a fellow
camper I got friendly with...

* (Aah, the joy and agony of Greyhound...hours of beautiful Rockies
scenery, across the aisle from a ranting, insane homeless guy...)

That is not a good idea.

Be safe.
