April had the day off today but didn’t get over to my house until after 1 PM and that makes it a little bit challending to do any large trail. This is simply because people get off of work early and the parking lots for the trails can get a bit packed. We decided to do the Redmond Watershed trail but (for the first time), our 60 Trails Within 60 Miles of Seattle book let us down. The trailhead was not where the book states and the book didn’t state this was not a dog friendly trail. They allow horses but not dogs ... and ... that is not as uncommon as you would think. Literally, you can get a ticket for not picking up your dogs droppings as a horse drops enough to close down an entire lane of a trail. ..... anyway ...
The Sammamish River Trail is one of the trails that turns into the Burke Gillman trail and can be picked up at the Woodinville trailhead. In this series of pictures, we headed south towards Redmond. We didn’t get as far as Redmond because it was an uncommonly hot day in the Pacific Northwest (nearly 90 ... well not that near ... like 84).
Yes, we have to have our swim.
Here is a picture of one of the bug sculptures at the bug bridge. Turned around here for our short trail of the day.
