Directions to the Dash

Getting to the Dash is simple.

From the I-5 Corridor, give yourself an hour and a half minimum from North Seattle, an hour from Bellingham.

• Take I-5 to exit 230 (Burlington/Hwy 20).

• Go 11.5 miles West

• Follow the signs to turn left (South) and continue on Hwy 20 toward Oak Harbor. DO NOT continue West to Anacortes.

• From this junction, follow Hwy 20 another 5.5 miles. You’ll see Pass Lake on your right.

• At the end of the Lake, turn right on Rosario Road and IMMEDIATELY left into the Park on Bowman Bay Road. DO NOT CROSS the Deception Pass Bridge to the main park entrance.

• The race venue start/finish line is at the Bowman Bay Boat Launch, at the bottom of the hill on Bowman Bay Road. Please follow the signs to unload area as we may ask you to park elsewhere after you unload.

If you're coming from Port Townsend on the ferry, give yourself 45 minutes from Keystone.

• Turn left from the ferry dock and follow the road to Coupeville.

• At the stop light in Coupeville, turn left onto Hwy 20 northbound.

• Follow Hwy 20 through Oak Harbor and continue North to the Deception Pass bridge.

• DO NOT turn left into the main park entrance just before the bridge.

• About a half mile AFTER the bridge, turn left on Rosario Road and IMMEDIATELY left AGAIN into the Park on Bowman Bay Road.

• The race venue start/finish line is at the Bowman Bay Boat Launch, at the bottom of the hill on Bowman Bay Road. Please follow the signs to unload area as we may ask you to park elsewhere after you unload.

Please contact Race Director Bill Walker in advance of race day if you have any questions. Cell coverage really sucks at Bowman Bay.
