💡 The south-side bench under the mesquite tree has the best shade after 3pm. No water fountains at the far end, so bring your own bottle.
💡 Best on weekday mornings before 11am when it's empty. Helmets are free to borrow from the adjacent rec centre — just leave an ID. No lights, so closes at sunset.
💡 Park at the small pull-off on Bell Road just east of 35th Avenue (free, no signs). The trail gets busy with cyclists on weekends, so walk facing traffic. No restrooms.
