We present multi-color transformations and photometric parallaxes for asample of 40 low mass dwarfs selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS)and the General Catalog of Trigonometric Stellar Parallaxes. Our sample wasre-observed at the Manastash Ridge Observatory (MRO) using both Sloan andJohnson-Cousin filters and color transformations between the two photometricsystems were derived. A subset of the sample had previously measuredJohnson-Cousins photometry and parallaxes as well as 2MASS photometry. Weobserved these stars at MRO using Sloan filters and used these data to derivephotometric parallax relations as well as SDSS/Johnson-Cousins/2MASS colortransformations. We present the data and derived transformations for use infuture low mass star studies.Comment: 7 pages, Accepted for publication in PAS
