Upper Bell Canyon Reservoir via Bell Canyon Trail

07/24/16

I've done this hike 5+ times, twice in the winter, once in the spring, and a few in the summer. The hike is NOT 18 miles round trip. It's 9 round trip (maybe even more like 10, I don't know how people are determining mileage). Yes the trail is steep, but getting up to the reservoir is worth it. If you're feeling more adventurous explore the rocks north of the reservoir to find more ponds and meadows, and for a challenge, take on North and South Thunder mountains (do some research on them first).
