Flower Peak at Fidalgo Head! This wander along the headland at Washington Park in Anacortes is one of the best lowland flower hikes available. Drive the Loop Road to any spot and start walking. Shooting star, camas, death camas, spring gold, fritillaria, sea thrift, monkeyflower, snow-in-summer, blue-eyed mary, silene douglasia, calypso orchids...I probably missed a few. Also worth mentioning are the incredible, wind sculpted juniper and madrone along these trails. Not much of an aerobic workout, but if you like flowers... Also eagles and seals along Burrows Channel.
