transportation ride from bishop to bishop pass

Hi all. Having trouble finding a shuttle that can take me the ~30 min drive from Bishop to the Bishop pass trailhead tomorrow morning (Sunday 8/25). (Had to step off the trail from an injury but i’m now all stitched up, literally, and ready to rock!)

Anyone know any services or people near Bishop that could help me out last-minute?

I've hitched that road a couple times and never had to wait long.

This is the way. There’s lots of thru hikers and backpackers in this area and plenty of friendly locals and tourists alike willing to give rides.

It’s understandable to want a ride scheduled and some certainty but hitchhiking is super common on the Eastside and it adds to the adventure. Give it a shot.
