Hiked with a dog
This was an easy, level and very short hike that left us with plenty of time for eating ice cream at the Chimacum Corner Store on the way home. The trail was clean and clear, and the salt water estuary near the rocky beach has fields of sea beans available, if you like to snack on those salty things. We saw a nice variety of native plants, including hazelnuts and Garry oak.

The trails follows the road much of the way, so you never really escape the sound of cars, but it's peaceful enough anyway.

We encountered two other dogs, one on leash (thank you!) and the other off leash. Leashes are required on the trails and on the beach.

Dog Mountain

South Cascades

Head to Dog Mountain for Columbia River Gorge views and an explosion of wildflowers. Eager to get in shape for summer? Head straight up the mountain on the northern side. Take the slow and steady eastern flank trail to stop and smell the flowers. (See if you can spot recent work by WTA trail crews.)
