Runner Notes

Very steep.

Description

This trail starts at Trail 207 and ends on the top of Mt. Erie. Mt. Erie provides some of the best views in the region, as you stand 1,263 feet above the sea, on an island. Take your time to take in the sweeping views. You can see The San Juan Islands, Whidbey, and and a bunch of smaller islands. You can see Mt. Baker, Mt. Rainer, and even Canada! This steep run is well worth it.

Flora & Fauna

Pines, ivy, ferns, deer, and blackberries.
