No snow!! This is my first hike this year where there was no snow on the trail. We hiked to Mt. Townsend from the Little Quilcene Trail #835. There were two other cars at the trailhead.
Rhodies are in bloom at the trailhead but have a couple of weeks to go further up the ridge. While there were a number of blowdowns this year, someone has done a fabulous job of clearing it away. The trail was in excellent shape all the way to the top.
Unfortunately, while the weather report said "mostly sunny", it was cloudy the whole day so we never got to see the vistas. Wildflowers are just coming out, especially the phlox. I plan on coming back in a couple of weeks weather permitting.
