- From ["Davis"] go west on ["Russell Blvd."] or ["Covell Blvd."] Covell becomes Highway 128 and merges with Russell. Follow 128 past ["Monticello Dam"] and the south shores of ["Lake Berryessa"]. At Turtle Rock bar, turn right on Berryessa/Knoxville Road. Follow Berryessa/Knoxville around the north side of Lake Berryessa and into the hills below ["Blue Ridge/Rocky Ridge" Blue Ridge]. The road will go over eight low water crossings, which may not be passable after recent heavy rain. Park about 9.5 miles up the creek from Lake Berryessa, around mile marker #28, at old corral on the right side of the road. The drive is relaxing and the hike is great, but due to the twisting small lane roads the drive is about an hour from Davis.	+ From ["Davis"] go west on ["Russell Boulevard"] or ["Covell Boulevard"] Covell becomes Highway 128 and merges with Russell.

	+ ------ + ''2008-03-02 17:11:17'' [[nbsp]] Long Canyon is really great. It's an easy hike, but your feet might get wet as there are multiple places where you have to jump across streams or walk through muddy areas. The scenery is beautiful. --["Users/FloridianPlywood"]

This canyon provides beautiful oppurtunies for ["Hiking and Backpacking" hiking] relatively close to ["Davis"]. A main trail runs up the bottom of Long Canyon, staying near to the creek, but many other trails traverse the hills around the canyon.
