Trail work brought me to this trail system again after a two year break.
Much work on the Licorice Fern Trail is being done with visible improvement to the trail.
On Sunday logs were added to steep side hill sections of the trail to reduce erosion and trail sloughing to the creek bed.
The trail it self is part of system that connects via the Red Town and Indian Trails to the Red Town trail head. Several loops are possible using the Licorice Fern Trail that can include more popular trails of the Cougar Mt. system. Distance from Red Town to the end of Licorice Fern is about 3.5 miles. Loops of 10 or 12 miles with some road walking are possible and open year round for exercise and exploring.
Licorice Fern follows a small creek as in goes down hill toward May Creek. The trail is not utilized very much and offers some solitude in a near/in city hike.
The trail is getting serious maintenace attention from the Issaquah Alps Trail Club.
