Just got a call to let me know that the folks who own the property on top of the Motherlode Hill, are inviting you all to park there. This is in the area of the run-down house and to the hill, which is getting mowed down to accomodate more cars. Just don't park infront of the oil wells!
While there are no guarantees of your vehicle's safety, it's in earshot of residents and has more traffic than the parking lots. You can share rides down with those who don't mind the risk, walk or ride a mountain bike.
Don't forget to wave at the folks when you see them out or stop and say hello. They're awesome and very supportive of climbers!
