Saturday Hike to Hobart Reservoir Sponsored by Muscle Powered
Join Muscle Powered on this half and/or all day hike to Hobart Reservoir. Meet at 8:00 am at the end of the pavement on Hobart Road in the Lakeview neighborhood.
The all-day hike is a strenuous 10-mile round-trip hike for fit, experienced hikers! The road to the crest of the mountain is very steep. The views, eventually, are spectacular and the Reservoir peaceful and quiet. There is lots of history along this route too and we will take numerous breaks going uphill.
We are also offering a "Half-hike" of 4-5 miles round-trip on this same route, turning back at approximately the mid-point of the hike, where you can see Carson City and surrounding areas but not go all the way to the crest and the reservoir. The steepness of the route is the same so be prepared for a strenuous hike to this spectacular viewpoint.
Required: Minimum one quart of water if you are going to the Reservoir as well as a lunch or snack. This will be a 5-6 hour hike. For the half-hike, a minimum of 20 ounces of water is required and a snack is recommended. This will be a 3+ hour hike. Highly recommended: Two Hiking poles, sturdy hiking boots, a good hat, and a camera.
Friendly dogs are welcome but be sure your pet is fit enough for this hike. Bring water for them too.
