Larrabee State Park - Rock Trail — Sunday, Apr. 17, 2022

Puget Sound and Islands > Bellingham Area

Road to the TH was bumpy and potholed, but we made it fine in my Prius by driving carefully.

The Rock Trail is great!  Hard to imagine who thought it would be possible to build this trail.  Lots of lovely native plants budding out right now.  

Took a right at the end along the Lost Lake trail, then headed back to the TH along the Double Black Diamond trail.  As mountain bikers, we assumed this would be a downhill mtb trail, and it was.  Definitely not fun to hike up since you have to pay such close attention for oncoming bikes.  Bikers were all great, but I wouldn't recommend this route.  Gaia showed the Fragrance Lake trail as a road, so we avoided it, but it appears to be a converted road trail.  Would definitely recommend this route instead.

The Rock trail was the best part of this hike, as the other trails are on converted roads and are quite weedy.  Views through the trees are great but will likely be gone in the next few weeks as the trees leaf out.  Overall a nice hike not too far from home.
