I am riding the trail this weekend and was originally going to leave my car overnight at the Weldon Springs trailhead, until I read that comment from 4 years ago about the break ins to many cars. So now I am thinking about either Page Bridge, Greens Bottom Trail or MO Research Park. Does anyone have any information on these parking areas? Which one would be the safest for overnight parking?

My pick would definitely be the Page lot.

I agree, Page is your best bet. It's visible from page as you come across the bridge and less isolated than the others (not sure about research park.)

Page is probably your best bet but I would assume that Mo Research Park would be okay as well.

Research Park has signs posted stating that the area is under camera surveilance. That probably makes it one of the safer areas for leaving a vehicle overnight.
