Discovery Park Loop Trail — Friday, Nov. 14, 2025

Had to get out for some fresh air today and be near the water.  Looked for a window of less rain but hard to find so I just went.  Started at east visitor center about 11.  Several cars in the lot.  But the best thing was the group of preschoolers rambling around in the woods and jumping in puddles like rain was no concern.  Pure joy!  
The loop trail is in great shape with no blowdowns.  Some mud but no bad considering the rainfall.  Mostly it was dripping from the trees and some light drizzle.  No views of the water at the totally socked in bluff area so I took the trail down to the beach.  Better view down there and true pacific NW.  The steps were so saturated the red cedar was visible.  Great little outing and no traffic.
