UNCA will be on Spring Break all week so parking should be easy, however you need to register your vehicle in advance at https://transportation.unca.edu/visitor-parking This takes a couple of minutes, then a pass will be emailed to you, which you’ll need to print.  We all have to do this FOR EACH DAY.  Please plan ahead.  You can even register and print all 2-3 days of passes, today.

Then plan to park in lot P26, which is designated an “all permit” lot, including visitor permits (be sure to display your visitor permit that you registered for, and printed, on your dashboard).

Postcards from the Field Click through here and upload one (or a few) of your very best bog photos* of workdays, research, plants and critters, and so forth.  We’ll have a slideshow on the big screens, and when your photo displays, you can chime in with who you are, who’s in the photo, subject, location, etc.  This goes quickly and will be inspiring for the Spring field season!
