This is where I start and finish my walk in Redmond. There is a long canyon running North and South through the center of town. The city has developed it with paved trails and many parks
They have kept the lawns in the developed areas in perfect condition.
Most of the trail has been left natural. I was making todays walk just after sunrise. There was a lot of traffic on the trail even at this early hour.
Two of the three tennis courts were being used.
In the back ground you can see the canyon walls, at this location they are low.
Across from the tennis courts is a covered picnic area that can be reserved. Again note the lawn.
At MP 0.9 there is a large "Dog Park" where you Can let Fido run free of a leash. Well fenced.
There are three dogs in there the small black and white one was being picked on by the two larger ones.
Here you can see the canyon is getting deeper. There homes all along the rim rocks.
Some of the access trails are steeper than others. The farther North you go the deeper it gets.
In this photo there is a guy working his German Short hair but they don't show. I didn't bring my big lens today. He had a retrieving dummy that he would throw up into a rocky slope as far as he could and send the dog after it on a "blind retrieve" useing hand signals to guide the dog. The dog worked very fast. It was fun to watch.
This is 1.52 miles from my car and where I turn back. The time I spend taking photos and talking to other walkers doesn't count as walking time on my GPS.
Had to get a picture of this home. It over where I stop and I couldn't get one from there. You have seen where I walk in Redmond. It took 48 minuets to do 3.4 Miles today. (walking time)
