Come to think of it......the most recent walking path in the northern section is the path that begins at the Lake Miona Rec Center. I haven't been on that path yet but wondering if that path is just asphalt with no cement ribbons. Anyone know?
The Lake Miona Rec center path is a rubberized surface like they use for running tracks with cement borders. It is six feet wide including the cement borders. Those from the district thought when they asked for a six foot wide path it would be six feet wide not including the borders, and admittedly, that would have been wonderful. However the path does work well and is fairly popular.

There is another rubberized surface walking path north off 441, just on the other side of the 441 bridge. I don’t know if there are any south of 44, but if there are I bet they also have concrete borders.
