Pretzel Tree Trail — Tuesday, Nov. 26, 2013

Issaquah Alps > Squak Mountain
Not hiked. Due to laminated root rot of very large firs in the parking lot area and beyond, this entire area is closed. Text from WA State Parks website (http://www.parks.wa.gov/parks/?selectedpark=Squak%20Mountain&subject=all): "The parking lot, southern trailhead and restroom at Squak Mountain State Park are closed until further notice due to a forest health issue. The Squak Mountain south trailhead is closed indefinitely." Sad, because this is a fantastic little loop for introducing very young children to nature and hiking, with a lovely illustrated story about the local wildlife and ecosystem.
