Description:
Meeting Location: We will meet in the Jerry's Home Improvement Center parking lot, Beltline at Highway 99, at the far side of the parking lot from the store, next to Highway 99 and the Jerry's sign.
The hike will begin at Chip Ross Park on the north side of Corvallis. Weather permitting, there are good views of Corvallis from the upper reaches of Chip Ross Park. We'll take Dan's Trail to the summit of Dimple Hill and stop for lunch and (hopefully) good views to the south. Most of Dan's Trail is a long and steady uphill, with plenty of switchbacks to keep it from becoming too steep. The trail is muddy in places, but generally in good condition. Although rated moderate according to distance and elevation gain, some hikers may find it difficult.
