Touchdown! Greaser!
Tell me about hiking it, which airport is closest. Just playin' with the idea.
Yeah the only problem with flying in to Mariposa is that there is nothing there, which could be problematic if you need a rental car. Personally I'd fly in to Mammoth (MMH) which is on the other side of the hill from Mariposa, but still about the same distance from the center of the park.
The County Web site claims that Mariposa Aiirport has rental cars on site again, although I heard on the Red Board that they are no longer affiliated with Hertz.

Hahaha, that's a pretty good story. I did that same exact thing and for that exact same reason. Except no VPSG.I hiked up to Glacier point not knowing there was a road. Oh well, it was a good hike in good company (very pretty scandinavian girl).
That would be awesome! Assuming one really really knows what they are doing.Just parachute in.:wink2:
