So often we've just blown right be this park. We actually camped here one time in 1996 when the campground was open and our kids were toddlers. So we targeted South Whidbey State Park in our quest to hike every possible park and preserve on Whidbey.
We started off hiking uphill on the Wilbert Trail. Note the downslope portion of the Wilbert Trail is closed for bridge maintenance (no estimated completion date found). So we continued up and around the Ridge Loop Trail. It's a nice forest walk with very few downed branches and logs, a few muddy spots, NBD.
Back at the parking area we decided to walk through the old campground with a side trip to the Ancient Cedar. It's quite big as cedars go, and well worth seeing. Stay back behind the fence and karma will be with you.
