Reservoir Tour

This ride begins at the South East Corner of the Boca Reservoir at the intersection of Stampede Meadows Road and Boca Reservoir Road.

This is a moderate ride around the Boca and Stampede Reservoirs it is a course we have done before. The temperatures should be pleasant, probably 60s as the high in Truckee is predicted to be 74f

The course is pretty simple we head out Stampede Meadows Road and follow it to the end of pavement and then turn around and then turn out Dog Valley Road to pass by and over the Stampede Dam. At the end of pavement we turn around and return to Stampede Meadows Road and then once we get back to the start we turn Right on Boca Dam road and follow it to its end and return.
