Directions:
From Newberg: take Hwy 219 (College St.) north (towards Hillsboro and Scholls). Just before Chehalem Mountain Pass, turn left onto Mountain Top Rd. (gravel). If you see an elevation sign for the pass, you've missed the turn. Stay on Mountain Top Rd. 2.1 miles (bearing left to remain along the mountain ridge). Watch for white board fences and blue barns - turn right to follow the drive between the white board fences. If you pass a dome home and alpacas on your left, you've missed the driveway. SCA signs will be posted.
From Hillsboro/Scholls/Tigard: take your best route to Hwy 219 south towards Newberg. Just after the Chehalem Mountain Pass, watch for a sign on your right listing Bald Peak State Park. Turn right - you are now on Mountain Top Rd.. Follow directions as above.
