    Default Easy way to find driving distance to trail access points.

    I'm sure this has been covered more than once, but my feeble brain can't seem to find the info. I live in Michigan and I would like to be able to easily find driving time to different trail access points. Is there a way to do that?

    Elaborating just a bit, right click on the Google map where the access point is and you'll get the option to route to or from that point.

    There is a web page floatin' in the ether somewhere that shows all the parking along the entire trail...I use to have it book marked on an old computer...but that one succumbed to blue screen decease for bad internet etiquette.

    Major road crossing like gaps, or towns, or poi are no problem. But check them close.

    Remote trailheads are tougher. But theres no need to target them anyway.
