It was a beautiful day for a hike, and the trail conditions were excellent with the exception of signage going counterclockwise from Samish overlook to Oyster Dome via Larry Reed and Max’s Shortcut trails. There is a very subtle left trail that is not marked until about 100 yards beyond the juncture, which we missed the first time so we added about 7 miles to our day!
On the advice of a trail maintenance guy, we took Acorn trial back for more open views of the water. Maybe worth it and less crowded, but then you end up on a forest service road for quite a while before merging back near the bottom of Larry Reed.
