Its just over 2 miles from the yellow gate to the do not enter signs which run from the tracks through the woods and on the road/trail north of the tracks. It seems they don't want trespassers. So as far as I can figure the rest of Lester lies beyond these signs, but before the signs you can see a couple old houses and beautiful fall scenery. While we were there a fairly long train came through, my hiking party thought that was a bonus to a already pretty cool hike.

It's a watershed
The no trespassing sign marks the beginning of the watershed area for, I think, Tacoma. They would close nearly the entire area if they could, but the rights to the road, the town and railroad right of way have prevented it thus far.

Thank You
So does that mean we can hike beyond the signs? We wanted to but thought we better do some more research and go back another time.
