Oxbow Loop Trail — Sunday, Jul. 11, 2021

Snoqualmie Region > North Bend Area
Oxbow Lake view by H2BH

A relaxing and quiet hike on a Sunday afternoon, with enough excitement to make it adventurous: 

Mosquitoes were biting, especially in the shady areas near the river and lake!  In one spot, on the west side of the loop, stinging nettles were close enough to the trail to nab the hiker wearing shorts!  Thimble berries and Trailing Blackberries are ripe - the bears like them too and we stepped over some berry-filled bear poo on the trail!  We enjoyed the lake views, giant tree stumps, and inviting log benches! 

Bring your water shoes if you'd like to make it easier to get your feet wet in the beautiful rocky river just off the well-marked River Access Trail!
