I wanted to go on a short hike to take advantage of the beautiful weather today and decided on Coal Creek Falls. The parking lot was packed when I arrived at 10:45, but I was able to find a spot quickly with other people leaving. The trail was in good condition - there were some muddy patches, but they weren't too deep and didn't last for long. The falls were raging after the snowfalls and rain of last week. As others have mentioned this is a maze of trails. I grabbed one of the maps that King County Parks offers at the trailhead, but didn't need it since the trail to Coal Creek Falls was well-signed. Overall this was a nice little leg stretcher and I plan to come back and add in the loop back to Red Town Trail to take the 3.5 mile loop. Plan to share the trail with lots of dogs and families with small children.
