Lime Kiln State Park — Friday, Feb. 5, 2021

This trail was actually many trails, and we tried to take every one we found.  Ended up putting in 8 miles!  The lighthouse was beautiful, the kiln was impressive (much more so than the Lime Kiln off the Mountain Loop Highway), and we found a wonderful little lake, where we accidentally disturbed a huge young eagle in a tree right above us, and were treated with a closeup experience with him as he took off just a few feet over our heads!  Later in the day, when on a rocky overlook, we were buzzed by an angry hummingbird - guess we were near a nest... That was the extent of wildlife sightings. Never saw the foxes or the orcas we have heard about. Many opportunities to see and to look over the wild rocky coastline, big crashing waves and expansive views. Madrona trees were amazing!  Some extremely old and huge ones throughout. A little mud in places, but not too bad.  Overall an amazing hike.  Highly recommend.
