Mizz Beeeee,
We car camped all weekend, and I think that was going to continue for the guys through the week. Yummy meal on Saturday night was provided by me, and we did grab lunch in Austin on Monday. The hikes really weren't bad (grueling wise), but the elevation gain was impressive for the actual mileage (Toiyabe Dome is 5500vf with only 9 miles of lateral movement RT, and the last 2 miles were up on the ridge).
It's not a "group" in the traditional sense: everyone is on their own, really, out there, with which I was fine. Bill and I were pretty evenly matched, speed-wise, although I just kept plugging along and he got to take breaks.
