Chose this loop from one of the WTA's winter hikes lists.  Very easy; flat and well maintained.  Leave the hiking boots at home, sneakers will do.  The winter willow, dogwood and other bare branch colors are lovely and soft.  Many birds on Larsen Lake, saw buffleheads, coots and mallards to name a few.  Red-winged blackbirds call from the thickets surrounding the water. 

Walked the eastern half of the Lake to Lake trail Sunday morning since the rain decided to let up.  The route started at the big gravel lot off 148th, around Larsen Lake, through the Lake Hills Greenbelt, east to Weowna Park, south through the park and around the southern loop, back west then north along the Phantom Loop to Phantom Lake then back the way we came.  Total mileage is about 5.5 with just 344' gross vertical, (mostly in Weowna Park.)  The trails around Larsen Lake are in great shape, with material recently added to get folks out of the mud.  The only other issue is a brand new big blow down on the eastern side of Weowna south loop - but that is passable, crawl under the first and over the second trunk of a big, second growth doug fir. 

It was super warm, above 50 the whole way, and many late winter/early spring birds were out.  Lots of red winged blackbird calls through the greenbelt and near the lakes and we had a particularly vocal raven in Weowna >grok<ing and >croak<ing the whole time.  Nothing growing yet but the bright red blueberry shrub bark and brilliant yellow willow shrubs are particularly pretty this time of year.  The waterfall in Weowna was as big as I've ever seen it with all the recent rain. 

This is not really a hike, but a good walk. Paved path the whole way and no views of the lake except for at the park. Still it would make a good run if you live in the area.
