Chesebro Canyon MTB trail - Father's Day potluck hike

Happy Father's Day!!
Bring your father, father figure, or your kids.
We'll celebrate this day and make a great memory together.

Easier Option: 4 miles, 230' gain.

We walk a mostly flat section for 1.1 mi. to the 2nd junction.

Easier option: Continue straight for 3/4 mi., left at the split, right after another 500', arriving at some picnic tables on the right after another 750'.

Regular route: Left, heading up a switch back. Right at the top, and continue for 3/4 mi., turning right where it ends. Head down to the bottom, left at the split. After 750', we arrive at some picnic tables on the right.

This is a pot luck picnic. Please bring something to eat and drink to share. If your item requires it, bring plates and utensils to share. You may wish to bring your own cup, plate, and utensils in case there aren't any. Pot Luck guidelines Link

We'll share snacks and drinks for 60-90 minutes, then return by a straight path, no turns.

Fun Facts
What is MTB?
Answer: Mountain Bike (not Mountain Terrain Bike)
The name I see on a map is: Chesebro Canyon MTB Trail

Why is it spelled Cheeseboro Canyon, Chesebro Canyon MTB Trail, and Chesebro Rd?
The original owner of the land in the late 1800s was Oscar Cheesebrough. The NPS adopted the U.S. Geological Survey spelling of Cheeseboro, while Caltrans adopted the name Chesebro.

Route
The host knows the route. A pic of the route has been posted as part of this description. The host may vary the route slightly.

Navigation: Host memory, enhanced by GPS navigation as needed.

Hike type: Social.
We won't be hiking at a fast pace because this is a social hike, not a conditioning hike. There is nothing wrong with stopping, even if it means every 50 steps.

Stops:
We will stop at junctions to make sure everybody makes any turns, else something will be used to mark the direction.

Each hiker is responsible for knowing their capability, only attending events where they are able to sustain the described pace, for keeping up with the group sufficiently enough to make the turns and not get left behind.

Dogs
Dogs must be kept on leash and away from the picnic table.
