Trip Report

Deception Pass State Park - Goose Rock, Deception Pass State Park - Headlands / Rosario Head / Lighthouse Point — Sunday, Dec. 22, 2019

Puget Sound and Islands > Whidbey Island

Such a beautiful day!  This was a two-part day. We first hiked the Lighthouse Point area from Bowman Bay with family, then re-parked at the bridge and did the east-side Goose Rock Perimeter to Goose Rock summit and back to the car on the Discovery Trail (which is actually closed due to rock slide), but we didn’t notice initially until we were tired and hungry at the detour sign at the CCC tunnel on our return to the car).  We did continue quickly thru the closed trail to the parking lot as the barricade had been opened, but should have chosen a diff route if we had known sooner.

My bro-in-law swears he saw the butt-end of a cougar when we were wandering the Lighthouse side of things but I wonder if it was a deer?  Or his eyes were playing tricks?
