The NCR Trail Snails typically meet on Saturday mornings at either the
beginning of the NCR Trail (Ashland Rd. parking lot - Mile 0) or at Loch
Raven Reservoir (Morgan Mill Parking Area). Where we will be on any given
week is announced through a group wide email on the Wednesday or Thursday
prior to that weekend's run. After the run, we always grab some breakfast at
the local bagel shop.

Take
I-695 (Baltimore Beltway) to I-83 North. Take I-83 North to the Hunt Valley
Exit at Shawan Road (Exit 20a - Shawan Road East). Follow Shawan Road for
approximately a mile - through two traffic lights. At the third light you
will have to either turn left or right - this is York Road (Rte. 45). Turn
right and then immediately get in your left lane as you are going to turn
left at the next light (approximately 200 yards or so). This is Ashland
Road. Turn left at the stoplight onto Ashland Road. In approximately a half
mile you will see a residential community on your right with a sign that
says ASHLAND. Turn right into the community and follow this road straight
back to the parking lot. Quite often in the summer you will have to park
along this road leading to the parking lot as the lot fills up quickly. Be
courteous of the residents and do not block any driveways or parking spaces.
Loch Raven Reservoir - Morgan Mill Road
Exit
I 695 at Dulaney Valley Road North exit 27. Follow Dulaney Valley Road north
over the first Loch Raven Reservoir Bridge. The road splits and you follow
the right fork which remains Dulaney Valley Road (Theleft fork is
Jarrettsville Pike). In a short distance the road splits again and you
follow the right fork which is now Loch Raven Drive (The sharp left fork is
Dulaney Valley Road). Proceed about 1 mile and Morgan Mill Road is on the
left. Parking is on Loch Raven Drive on the right side of the road.
