Everyone starts out on wait list. Drivers are let in first (please arrive with full tank of gas, you’ll get reimbursed for the 90 miles-worth of gas used and then some), then the number of hikers that will fill that car’s seats. Drivers please do not back out because your actions will severely disappoint 3 to 4 other people who were planning to sit in your car. Thanks!
We’ll meet in the parking lot outside my apartment building. Please log in and click on the meeting location link for directions. You can take the free trolley to very nearby if you don’t want to walk 15 or 20 mins from UVa.
