Join staff from the Anderson-Foothill Branch for one more hike before the snow starts falling! We'll be hiking the Pipeline Trail in Millcreek Canyon. Registration is required.
We'll take in the fall foliage and an excellent view of the city from an overlook while trekking through the canyon. This hike will allow patrons to explore an exciting local trail and help prepare them for more strenuous hikes if they choose to tackle those in the future. The hike itself is roughly 3.9 miles out and back, with approximately 823 ft of elevation gain. Here's a link to the hike on AllTrails.

About the branch
The pleasing design of the Anderson-Foothill Branch has two unique elements as part of its plan. The first is a passive solar energy design that includes earth berming, window placement for solar heating, and zone supplemental heating/cooling. The second element of this 14,900 square foot community library built in 1985, expanded in 1992 and in 2002, is a modular design.
The Anderson-Foothill Branch has a meeting room available for public use with tables, chairs, and a projector screen. The Anderson-Foothill Branch's outdoor amphitheater is a popular location for summer concerts. Free parking is available to the north and south of the building, and free wi-fi access is provided throughout the library.
