Ooooh! Sounds interesting. Pretty long drive for me, but if I can convince the hubby, I'm in! HUGE pooch, two kids and a hubby - sign us up.

Try this perhaps.

It should link to a custom created Google Map. If it still doesn't work, you can look at this Hiking Upward link.

That is quite a long drive, especially with kids and dog in tow.0 -
Well,it looks like the hubby already made plans for us this Sunday, but I'd still love to hike there.
Maybe we'll go another time. 0 -
I will be posting more hikes so maybe next time.0

It's about a 40 minute drive for me so I'm game if you're still planning on doing the hike.0

I will be there.
Edit: I'm flexible with the time but that area fills up fast on nice weekends and there is only a limited amount of parking. I would hate for anyone to travel any sort of distance only to find no parking. Mornings or evenings seem to be best.0 -
So, is 8 am still the go time? I'm 30 minutes away but will try to be there a little before 8. Do I need cash for parking or they take cash?0

I'm bringing my best friend. See you at 8.0
