We will meet at the trailhead for Mt. Osceola on Tripoli Road.  To get to it from I-93, take exit 28, and go east on Rt. 49 towards Waterville Valley.  As you get close to the Valley itself, you will see the sign directing you to go left for Tripoli Road, and the Waterville Valley Ski area.  Turn left, and then bear right when you get to the turn for the ski slopes.  The right fork will take you to the gate for Tripoli Road, which will be open at this time of the year.  Continue on Tripoli Road for a few miles, and right after the Thornton height-of-land, you will see the Mt. Osceola trailhead on the right.  The parking lot is fairly small, but you can park on the side of the road, if it is full.  There is fee for parking in the lot if you do not have the WMNF yearly pass, or the National Parks Senilor Citizen Lifetime Pass (yes, a few of us do have that one!).  Tripoli Road is not paved, and it has some potholes and loose rocks.  Drive carefully, as this can do some damage to the under carriage of your vehicle, especially if it is a low riding one.
