DEAR MISS MOUNTAIN MANNERS – An Advice Column on Multi-Use Trail Etiquette
In memory of our beloved Board member Bette Seeland, we’re republishing a few of the articles in which she was a major contributor…this is one of them.
Dear Miss Mountain Manners: When I got to my favorite Jeffco Open Space Park for a hike, the parking lot was full. What should I do? Feeling Shutout
Dear Shutout: You could walk close to home instead of driving to a park. Do not park on the road shoulder leading to the park. Download, sign up, then check the LotSpot parking lot app to find a park not currently overcrowded. Come at a time when the park is less crowded such as weekdays, before 9 am or after 3 pm.
