Anyone who wants to carpool should meet at 10:30 a.m. at the Monroe P&R. If you would prefer to drive yourself, please plan on meeting us at the TH at 1:30 p.m. Driving directions from the P&R to the TH are here.
In the interest of full disclosure, I have never done this trip before and am counting on everyone working as a team on navigation. This has worked well in the past, and I am confident we will be successful in our route finding if everyone comes prepared and participates! Please review and bring a copy of the route description (here, and here) and a map. There is absolutely NO excuse not to do this!!! For those carrying GPS devices, you can download a reliable GPX file for our route here.
