Frenchman Coulee — Saturday, May. 12, 2018

Central Washington > Potholes Region
the shady water access area

This is a trip report for the small hike located close to the Frenchman Coulee river access area. This is a short, flat hike (1.7 mile one way) with a few nice shady spots where you can access the water. We chose this hike over the other ones in the area since we were with our black lab and he gets really hot, really fast, especially in the Eastern Washington sun. 

The hike passes an Osprey nest and it was intriguing to see the Osprey's behavior as we passed by - it would start circling the nest; probably surveying if we were threats to it. 

The trail here is right next to private property and the two are separated by a dirt road, so make sure you don't stray into private land and stay on the same side of the dirt road as when you start out.
