Ebey's Landing — Tuesday, Apr. 4, 2023

Puget Sound and Islands > Whidbey Island
lunch view, from atop the bluff, across to the Olympics

We started at the Prairie Overlook Trailhead, passed the blockhouse, and headed west. As we walked that path, someone was plowing the field to our left; birds lined up along the freshly turned earth. When we arrived at the T at the west end, we turned left, down the gradual slope to the south end of the beach, near the Ebey's Landing parking lot. Then we went north on the beach, and up the switchback trail up the steep slope. We found that this was actually our preferred direction, since you didn't have to go down the steep part of the trail. Lunch on the top of the bluff at a wide place in the trail, with a log to sit on, and daydream across to the Olympics, basking in the sun. Trail was in great shape. Low tide -- check the tide tables before you go, so you have a nice place to walk on the beach!
