Title:Dimple Hill
Area:McDonald-Dunn Research Forest
Elevation:1495 Feet
Elevation_Gain:1000
Trail:Dan's Trail
Links:McDonald Forest Trail Map, Trip Journal - 6/2/02, 4/8/03
Notes:Dimple Hill, located in the McDonald Forest right next to the City of Corvallis, makes a good destination for a hike. It's a long enough hike for a good work out, low enough elevation to be accessible year around, and close enough to be considered an urban hike.
Route:From Corvallis take Highland Drive north. At the top of the hill turn left on Lester Avenue, which dead-ends in a gravel parking lot at Chip Ross Memorial Park. Dan's Trail can also be accessed from an unoffical spur that starts on the end of 29th Street off of Walnut Boulevard.
