I'm curious what it looks like from about the 5 fwy north to the Santa Fe Dam? I'd be leaving around the El Dorado Park area and I'm familiar with the the path up to about the 5 fwy. After that, I haven't been that far north in a long, long time. I'd be doing it alone. I'd like to make a run up to the Dam but I'd also like to feel relatively safe. Has anyone been on that stretch lately?
