Parking And Arrival
Send guests the Main Parade Lawn meeting point, nearby transit or parking notes, and the expected event window before the day begins.
Walking Time And Park Scale
The event works best when clues stay near the Main Post and nearby park paths so the size of the Presidio does not stretch the schedule.
Weather And Finish Planning
Layers, wind, fog, open lawns, and post-event gathering plans should be considered when choosing the final regroup point.
App-Supported Clues Add Presidio Story Layers
