Meet at the Safeway in Roxborough Village in time for a 8:15 am departure. We will arrange carpools for the short drive into Roxborough State Park from here. A State Park Pass is required for each car. If we don't have enough cars with passes then the $10 fee will be split between riders. Here is a Google Map to the Safeway.
The before trip email will indicate if microspikes are recommended, and poles can be helpful. This will be a moderate hike because of the pace we will keep.
