Thank you very much for the important clarification. I found it quite difficult to sort out the timetables that are posted online. It was also not clear to me where the Mammoth Shuttle starts.
I met Matthew on that first bus of the day at the Village at 7:15 AM about 4 days prior to his disappearance. He knew that he could catch the first bus at the village at that time. This is new information to me. I must have missed it in my review of known facts.

thanks for the current photo. That shows very sparse snow cover for the East side of the Minarets at this time of year.

That bottle is a type of item that Matt would use (prob a million others as well). He did have a lot of 'OR' Outdoor Research items from clothes to hats, so im assuming he liked the brand.
He would hold on to things if they worked and wouldn’t spend a lot of money on gear just for the sake of having the latest and greatest, so a 90's water bottle fits his MO.
Here is a picture of his bike. He rode this old POS thousands of miles even though he could easily afford to get a new one. This worked for him…. We did not find a water bottle with it, even though it has a holder and he would have carried one.

great TR. Someday I hope to take my kids (Bob’s granddaughters/Matts nieces) out there to experience the beauty and awe of such a wonderful place.

What kind of crampons did Matt have? I found one on Morrison yesterday.

so to drive into devils postpile before 7am or after 7pm one must have a campsite, a boat, handicap plates, weapons(?!?), staying at the resort....anyone know of any loopholes? any locals that could get me in there before 7am?

EKat, the way I read that is the only way you are driving in there during shuttle season is before 7, after 7, AND ONLY if you fall under one of those listed exceptions. Correct me if I am wrong though
