Seattle 2016

I found this trail on my All trails app (it's actually referred to as Gazzam Lake Loop) , and was expecting it to be an easy walk in the woods. In fact, I had picked out another easy loop to do afterwards if we felt like we needed more. But this was so awesome! We followed the main trail out and back, maybe 4 miles total, with a couple of spur trails and loops out to Gazzam Lake, which is really more of a marshy pond. One of the lookout spots had a bench where we sat for a while and admired the reeds and ducks. When we got back to the start we decided to take a side trail that the map showed went out to the coast. It dropped down and down right to the water, where there was a little beach spot. Spectacular view, and the Lady Washington was sailing by (that's the ship they used in Pirates of the Caribbean) so we stuck around a while and put our feet in the Sound. If I were staying longer I'd come back to this area to run. Such a great hike--we ended up enjoying this trail for about 3 hours.En savoir plus
