Hetch-Hetchy Trail
By twirlymaker in June, 2010
About Three miles meandering under High Voltage Power Lines. Graffiti on walls and fences.
Passes by two nice parks, water and potties. Most of trail dry vegetation .
Short sections green through apartment housing and parks.
Trail has 4 sections of about 50-60 feet hard packed dirt. Asphalt in fine condition.
