Puget Sound and Islands > Seattle-Tacoma Area

My daughter and I ventured down to here from Pacific (Auburn) area and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We were able to check out binoculars free just by leaving a driver's license or credit card from the visitor center. The trail is accessible for all. Part of the trail is a boardwalk and the other part is gravel. There are information signs about the wildlife that is to be seen all along the tail. There are also large built in viewfinders all along the trail. We were at the tail in the afternoon and there parking lot was quite full. We saw quite a few visitors on the tail. We saw geese, herons, a snake, and one doe pass us right at the barns. All in all it was great day.
