Oyster Dome — Saturday, Jun. 17, 2006

Puget Sound and Islands > Bellingham Area

The view from the top of Oyster Dome is beautiful! To get there, take I-5 to exit 231 and continue on Chuckanut Drive until milepost 10. Parking is off to the left hand side and the trailhead is on your right. The trail starts off steep and seems to continue that way. To get to the top of Oyster Dome, hike all the way up until you see a big tree on your right with a sign that says 'protect Blanchard Mountain' on it, at this point, take a left and the trail goes to Oyster Dome. The view of the San Juan islands from the top of Oyster Dome is just amazing! Distance- 6 miles RT Elevation gain- 2000 ft Time- 1.5 hours up and 1 hour and 5 minutes down Drive- 65 miles from my North Seattle home
