Ebey's Landing — Thursday, Jan. 12, 2012

Puget Sound and Islands > Whidbey Island
Bluff view
This is a five star hike for sure! Low miles, easy trail and magnificent views! All the mountains were out today and with the Pugetopolis pollution and some clouds it was a photographers dream. Unfortuneatly my trusty Canon point and shoot has died so the pictures aren't great. Dress warmly, the ground was frozen when we got there and it was cold the whole time. Some parts of the trail are slick and muddy so boots or shoes with good traction are advised. We saw seals and ducks, but that was it for wildlife. It was fun to see the seals. I like hiking the loop from the cemetary parking overlook. Be sure to check out the info kiosks on the beach end by the restroom, info on the history and a guide to the different ships. Can you imagine commuting to Port Townsend every day in a rowboat? That's what Ebey did.
