4 miles of hiking • 500' elevation gain •
Took my son out on a rainy day and did a clockwise loop and two lollipop loops around the park. Started at 148th TH, but the construction of the subterranean reservoir halted my clean loop. Instead, we walked the perimeter fence of the construction area to find a way through (there was none), and looped back via deer trails through pleasant doug fir and western red cedar understory on the north "rim" of the park. Continued toward the summit and did the orchard loop before dropping south and linking with the Elderberry trail to make our way north back to where we parked. Quiet and wet with good fall color.
