Meeting and pickup

Meeting point
Generals Highway

Meet at the trailhead parking area located across the road from the Potwisha Campground, an unglamorous sign says 'dump station' but don't worry we'll be beyond that! Free parking and restrooms are available. I'll be easy to spot on the south side of the parking area with my red lantern.

End point
This activity ends back at the meeting point.
