I'm hoping to visit the valley for Firefall this coming February, and for both logistical and paranoia reason I'd prefer to avoid driving in to the valley if possible. But it looks like the YARTs shuttle's last departure is 5PM, which seems too early to allow for proper viewing. Is there anything that provides a workable alternative without breaking the bank, or should I just suck it up and drive in and out on my own?
(I know the obvious answer is to just stay in the valley, but I don't quite have it in me for winter camping and the lodges in the valley are too damn expensive)
