Looking for a ride out of the Valley early on Thursday (10/17) or Wednesday (10/16).

I'm heading to to YNP a week prior, but my friends (and ride) are staying through the weekend and I need to be back in CO for work.  Would love to hitch a ride, but beta on the best route to the nearest Bay area airport is greatly appreciated.

*Flying into Sacramento.
*Obviously happy to pay for the lift.

Thanks in advance,

Jason A.

Take a YARTS to Merced. Then take a greyhound or train to sac or Bay Area. Then cab/Uber it to airport.

To add, for folks unfamiliar with the Bay Area bus system, this website made finding a bus & train link-up to/from Yosemite pretty easy: https://www.wanderu.com/en-us/?cur=USD

Good info thanks. I just hitchhiked out of Yosemite straight to SFO after I got off a climb late and missed the morning YARTS bus. It took 1.5 hours of energetic sign waving and got me to my flight on time.
