This easy trail takes in an amazing range of Northwest scenery: dense, mossy forest, river, lake, and steep rocky mountains looming above. It was popular but not crowded on this Sunday, with almost all the parties on the trail including young children. Fall colors are coming in but not yet near peak.
We went to the larger parking area with the toilets. Toilets were stinky but OK, and the door on one doesn't lock. Regarding the WTA driving directions, they say after bearing right at the fork, "stay right and pass over a bridge spanning the Middle Fork Snoqualmie River" as if the bridge is shortly after the fork. In fact it's more than 4 miles to the bridge. Bottom line is just keep going on the same road. There are numerous trail heads along the way, but they're well marked.
