EASY Reservoir Ridge Hike/Walk

This will be an easy dog friendly hike/walk. It's a nice time of day to get out and enjoy the birds, cool temps, etc. This is a good opportunity for a little fresh air and exercise before work/school/whatever.

We'll meet at the Reservoir Ridge TrailHead off of Overland Trail. NOT the TrailHead at the end of Michaud Lane (the trail from Michaud Ln is a little steeper/rockier). Your phone/nav system will take you to the wrong place. Use this map instead to go to the TH off of Overland Trail. Our trail is labeled "Foothills Trail (1.4 mi)."

This will be a leisurely out-and-back on a smooth gravel path. We'll go to the first trail junction then turn around and return to the TH. Total mileage is around 2.5. It should take about 60 mins and is basically flat; maybe 20-30 feet of verts.

Reasonably well behaved dogs welcome. My German Shepherd Blazer can be a little barky, but he'll calm down once we get moving.

We roll out promptly at 0630. Don't be late! We go rain or shine, unless the city has closed the trail.
