That sounds awesome but can't make it.

Re: trail ride at frick park

I can make it, and I should have my scaler up and running tomorrow.

I'm not waterproof yet, how about you guys?

Let me know if you need direction.

You want to go to Lower Frick Park.

If you are coming from the West, you will take the Parkway East (headed outbound) you will take the Edgewood/Swissvale exit. The off ramp forks twice, veer left at both forks on the off ramp. At the end of the ramp, you will merge onto Braddock Ave. Take Braddock to the first traffic light. Make a left at the light onto Hutchinson Ave. On Hutchinson Ave. go four blocks (At the forth stop sign, you will see a sign saying "To Lower Frick Park) make a right and go all the way down that street. The park entrance is at the end of that street, the road to the park goes downhill to the parking lot. Park at the far end of the parking lot (closest to the soccer field). From the parking lot, walk to the other end of the soccer field, and take the path to the left over a little bridge. Follow the path for about 100 yards to get to the good spot on the creek. You will see the creek on your right.

The purple circle is the parking lot in Lower Frick Park. The white circle is the soccer field, and the blue circle is where the old football field used to be (It's not there anymore).

The best way to get there, is to go to the parking lot of Lower Frick Park. It's only about a 200 yard walk to the rock pile from there.






The green arrow is the trail to the Irish Center. The purple arrow is to the parking lot, and the red line is the trail to the rock pile. The blue line is 9 mile run creek. Red circles are three spots to crawl.



Let me know what time you want to meet, and I can meet you in the parking lot. I drive a 95 Honda Civic.
