How does one get to the trailhead in Columbia? Say from 70hwy?

I'm not sure I can make it by 8:00. I got a 2 hour ride there, but I'd like to give it a try.

I'll have someone else write a response on here since I dont drive much I really dont know.

Hold on.......

There are several, but an easy one to get to is the Martin Luther King park. From I-70 turn right onto Stadium Blvd and go south on it to the park. Stadium Blvd curves back toward the east and up a long hill.....as you go down the other side the park will be on your right. It's a couple of miles or so south of I-70.

I will be joining you! My plans for a longer trip fell through when the shuttle van lost its transmission, so I had to scramble to find other things to do on the trail.
