Great hike, all the way to the end and past, I dont recomend going to much further, to much brush and I brought a tick home. Lots of wildflowers and butterflys, also saw 4 mountain goats and a low flying hawk. Great day hike, Definetly go,look for the fruit trees. Pooring in western wa, 85 degrees and sunny here!!!
