This was a short hike (about 1 hr in length) with limited views {falls were in full throat}. Some low-land wild flowers were in bloom and the trees are coming out of hibernation. The trails were dry except for the Quarry trail which had mud patches. With the sun out and temperatures in the 70's this was a great walk in the woods.

Gorgeous day! This was the perfect trail for today. It had a lovely wooded setting, but also allowed plenty of of that rare Seattle sun to come shining down! The foot path was in good condition. The signs got slightly confusing, but not bad. Nice easy hike for my mum who is not in shape and has a bad knee. The falls were really nice too! Wasn't expecting that! We got a little lost and parked and the wrong lot, so it was a 4.25 mile hike that we did in just over an hour. Highly recommend for families and kids. There were lots of signs explaining the flora which I always love. Dogs were happy 😊

Beautiful landscape. Steady incline to start. But so lovely.
