Notes
Car break-ins have increased at this location over the years due to the proximity to the Interstate. Hikers are warned not to leave valued possessions in your car. Carry your wallet with you and leave everything else at home. Some hikers leave their glove compartments open and cars unlocked, as clouters are usually attracted to easy to grab valuables and identity information and not the car itself.
