Getting there:
Take
I-15 to the Alpine/Highland exit, just south of Point-of-the-Mountain. Drive
straight east
5 miles towards the mountains, turning left at the stoplight in Highland
(where you see
the grocery store and gas station). Drive 2 miles north into Alpine to the
4-way stop at
200 North. That's our ride's starting point. Most bikers park in the church
lot (R around the corner). Copyright 2002 Mad Scientist Software Inc |
