I hiked the Vancouver Lake North Trail were terrible for me. I am a mosquito magnet and I killed 30 mosquitoes on me and still got several bites.
The trail is in good shape after several WTA work parties spreading gravel over the tree roots.
I discovered there is a connecting trail to the Vancouver Lake Trail and it goes out into the wildlife area across the road from the trail. I've included a photo of the route.
To access this connecting trail cross over the steel and concrete bridge at the northwest end of the trail, walk across the road and through the gate. Continue walking north along a raised road until you decide to turn around. We walked about 0.3 mile along the gravel road then turned around. There are really nice views of a lake and the wildlife area.
We walked back along the NW Erwin O Reiger Memorial Hwy which is the dead-end road along the northwest side of Vancouver Lake because the mosquitoes along the Vancouver Lake North Trail.
