First Pullout Parking?

We'll be climbing in Red Rock next week (March 27-29), looking to hit some of the crags at the First Pullout. I assume the parking lot construction isn't complete, so what's our best option for parking?

Second pullout. Or hiking from Visitors center.

Last week we parked at the second pullout and walked down. Lots of people were parking on the side of the road past the pullout since there wasn't enough parking at the pullout and the park services seemed to be just fine with that.

Yeah, I was in town a few weeks ago on business, and drove the loop on a Sunday. I also saw a lot of people parking on the road past first lookout, but wasn't sure it if that was ok. (We'll also be climbing during the week, so I wasn't sure if that would make a difference.)

Try hiking in from the visitor then it'll save you having to drive the loop.

We parked at the Visitor Center each day and walked/hitchhiked. We got rides up, walked back and drove out without having to do the loop. Worked out great.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
