Rockport State Park — Sunday, Sep. 19, 2010

North Cascades > North Cascades Highway - Hwy 20
Evergreen Trail

Surprised to see the park entrance closed off with an "emergency closure" sign when we arrived at 10:30. Went to investigate, and fortunately someone just came out to open the entrance. Something about a power outage... Hiked part of the Evergreen Trail counter-clockwise. There was one huge blowdown that was rather difficult to get around, but other than that the trail was in great condition. Didn't encounter anyone on the trail. Glad to have discovered this beautiful, moss-covered old-growth forest; no need to drive all the way to the Hoh rain forest!

Evergreen Trail

Is this a loop hike? How many miles?

Evergreen Trail

The Evergreen loop is about 3 miles, plus there are several smaller loops, see http://www.parks.wa.gov/parks/thumbnailAndmaps/5550042.pdf.
