Royal Creek just before it flows into the Dungeness River.
It looks like it's been more than a month since the last trip report on this trail, so here's an update.
Getting to the trailhead was not an issue, there is no snow left on the road or in the parking area. I hiked to Camp Handy (3.4 miles up) and there isn't any snow on the trail at all, and overall the trail was in great condition. I can't speak for the trail past Camp Handy, as that was my turnaround point.
This is a scenic, mellow river hike and perfect for a cloudy, drizzly day like it was on Friday.
