I edited the map so there should be a marker visible now. Please let me know if you do not see it. There is parking on both the North and Southbound lanes of the 295 Overlook. If you park on the southbound side there is a pedestrian bridge over the interstate. The trail is found on the northbound side. There will be directional signage from the stairway down to the trail leading to the researchers.
