Ray Miller to La Jolla Pond loop
Starting and finishing at Ray Miller. Taking the Overlook fire road to the left towards the four corners. Once there we go left again down into La Jolla Valley, after 0.2 miles you turn left again. After running through a meadown, then under the trees you'll notice a nice big pond on your right. At the far end of it you can turn right on a nice sigle track trail that takes you around the pond and eventually you end up at the La Jolla trail where you turn right again which takes you back to the four corners after an uphill of 0.2 miles. From there track back to the top of Ray Miller where you drop down back to where you started.
