LONG riders can park at the bottom (see directions) or can park at Tom’s Place (a more secure location) and descend/climb the lower section before starting their ascent of upper section. EZ START riders (need carpool) do the upper climb, then descend all the way down to the bottom of Lower Rock Creek to meet their carpool. Lunch is near the summit at Rock Creek Resort (aka “Pie in the Sky”). This ride is co-listed with ACTC.
