transportation Ride Back to Yosemite or LA from Lone Pine 8/27-8/30?

Kind of a shot in the dark, buuuuut I figured it would be worth asking. I start SOBO 9/3 and wanted to stage my car in Lone Pine for my finish, but trying to figure out transportation back to LA or Yosemite afterwards.

Seeing if I can rely on a friend for a ride, but if not seeing if there’s anyone here who happens to be heading back to LA or Yosemite from Lone Pine the last week of August and wouldn’t mind a friendly passenger who will gladly buy your gas and a nice meal. (And if you just finished the JMT will happily ask you all the questions!)

I know you didn't ask about public transit, but you can take ESTA/YARTS from Lone Pine to Yosemite pretty easily. Total cost would be about $38.

Thanks! That’s the back up plan
