    Take the bus(!): The Number 7 route stops right at the Trailhead! Check www.metrotransit.org for info and route planning.

    Dropoffs: Pull-through drop-offs may be done in front of The Trailhead.

    Parking: Lots of parking at Mortenson Parking Lot! We expect the Trailhead lot to fill quickly. It is a short walk or jog from the Mortenson parking lot to the start area. Please do not park in any reserved spaces at Mortenson.
