Been on two hunts with good friends that were sort of alone. They did there thing (photography for the most part), I did mine. Just worked out for the package. In each case I had different flights for some of each leg to and from. Next is all on my own next fall, including a week of touring and I'm looking forward to it. I prefer not to have to wonder/worry about anyone else but me. While many might prefer multiple people, with obvious multiple paying customer incentive, the outfitters I have chosen in the past and next year were all cool with the way things were and will be. I in return tip well.
