ROUND 2!  Fingers crossed!  We will be walking on paved trails again this week, trying to avoid the muddy conditions of previous storms.  The hike will circle the wetlands of the North Truckee Drain, heading both north and south from the starting point, near Costco on the south, and Bodega Park on the northeast.  The hike will be about 5 1/2 or 6 miles.

Meet at Doughboy Donut parking lot, near the back of it, at 9:30 a.m., for a start time of 9:45 a.m.

Directions:
To get there from I-80, take Sparks Blvd, east, about 4.5 miles.  The shopping center will be on your right, just past Los Altos Parkway and Dad’s Quick Mart.  5272 Sparks Blvd.

Preparation:
Wear shoes suitable  for hiking paved asphalt and concrete walkways.
Bring plenty of water and a snack.
Trekking poles are not necessary, unless you feel comfortable with them or there is ice.
Layer clothing for change in weather conditions.
