| Realistically you are talking £2K for this trip. I spent a lot on getting home at the end of the trail and some cash could be saved here. |

|
| Getting there.. |
| Return flights Newcastle - Heathrow - San Francisco - British Airways |
£990.11 |
| Luckily I was able to stay with a friend who fed me and took me to Yosemite for the start of my trip - so there were no further costs incurred on the way to the Trailhead. |
