Hands down, the Lincoln Rd trailhead is one of my favorite trails, and I love it's right in the city! This is a great trail for hiking or running, and I like to do both! Watch out for critters! Snakes love these trails as much as we do....
Hey dog parents!!!!
This is a great trail for my dog -- if you're bringing your dog, remember to bring water for your furry friend... and extra bags for poop. Bonus is this trailhead has a doggie bag dispenser and a waste bin in case you forgot to grab some on your way out the door! Your dog will probably poop - there are too many exciting smells (mine nearly loses her mind sniffing and scurrying after smells - she looks practically manic when we first start out); I can only imagine this is like the canine equivalent of all those tourists who kissed Oscar Wilde's tomb in Pere LaChaise (I never understood that).
This trail is generally clean and clear from litter and poop, but it's sorta befuddling to me how some doggers will bag poop but then leave it on the side of the trail. I've passed same bags heading in and on my way out, leaving me to wonder if someone forgot to pick up a "deposit?" I definitely don't mind picking up my little gal's poops, but I do mind picking up other pups' drops (Mr and Mrs Non Pooper Scooper), and leaving doggie drops makes all doggers look guilty by association. I want to retain the ability to bring my dog with me, and although I will grab and bag others, I don't particularly want to be the pooper scooper of the Lincoln Trailhead, so let's work together to keep these trails clean!
