The Back Way To Hellyer Park – BionicOldGuy


I did one other lengthy brisk cruise in the present day, largely to the north. I took the Coyote Creek Trail to the primary flood, then labored round it on Monterey Highway. I knew there was one other flood north of Blossom Hill Rd, so left the path and labored my means over to Hellyer Ave, which received me to Hellyer Park. I needed to take a look at the velodrome, however bumped into one more flood proper earlier than it. I’m signed up for an occasion “HPV fun day” there on May twenty first. I hope both the floods go down by then or we will provide you with an alternate resolution, as the one different entry to the velodrome is through an alternate pedestrian-only entrance with no parking. I had the unhappy obligation of informing the organizers of the occasion concerning the scenario.

I retraced my steps on Hellyer Ave and the path so far as Metcalf Ave, then took Monterey Highway house as a result of I used to be operating a bit late. Monterey Highway is a four-lane highway with quick site visitors, nevertheless it has a large bike lane so continues to be fairly nice to journey subsequent to.

Some attention-grabbing rock formations within the foothills East of Hellyer Ave.
Inside Hellyer Park. Yet one other place Coyote Creek floods the highway. The white within the distance past the orange barrier is the concrete wall on the prime of Hellyer Velodrome
This is looking on Coyote “Creek” from the bridge on Metcalf Road (in direction of the pedestrian bridge on the path). The “Creek” appears extra like a river this 12 months. Anderson Dam continues to be about 40% full from all of the rain we received earlier this 12 months. The water is repeatedly gushing out of the outlet pipe on the backside, however it’s going to take many extra weeks till the dam is empty, which it must be so work can proceed on the subsequent stage of the seismic retrofit.
