Puget Sound and Islands > Seattle-Tacoma Area

TRILLIUM ALERT!!

I have looking for the first trillium of the season but had to come back to suburban hiking to find them.  The Trillium Trail at this area has tons of trillia, trilliums, or whatever the plural is.  There were also a smattering of other wildflowers starting to pop up.  These include bleeding hearts which I assumed were still confined to the Wallingford District - that was intended as a compliment; I like the Wallingford area.

We did a loop trip returning on the Pipeline Trail.  The trail has a few muddy spots and lots of horse poop but was OK.  Try to avoid this area next weekend since there was a notice for a trail run on one of the weekend days.

Also, there was an interesting downed tree configuration that you will have to see to believe on the Pipeline trail.

Did you find this trip report helpful?
