Middle Fork Snoqualmie River: Upstream

This is one of my favorite easy hikes. The vegetation, especially this time of year, is incredible. We picked a bag full of fiddlehead ferns which were abundant all along the trail. The trail itself is a delight. It is well maintained and easy to maneuver.
There were several blow downs and a few washouts but the WTA crews were out there working hard to restore it. The blow downs left are easily managed. The downside is the 9 miles of potholes you have to endure to get there are awful. I would not go there without a 4 wheel drive high clearance vehicle although we saw other "regular" cars there. I suppose not having that road repaired is what keeps the trail so serene. Otherwise it would be so popular it would be crazy. I only go there every couple years after I have kind of forgotten how hard it is to get there.
