Thursday At The Flaming Geyser


Mark another one off the list from "60 Hikes Within 60 Miles Of Seattle" and number 55 was the last hike (that is dog friendly) from the Tacoma / Olympia section of the guide we hadn't explored.


As you can see, the geyser is modest. According to the book, gas rises 1,400 feet through a concrete cylinder.



There were a few side trails that were somewhat interesting. I think I liked the drive through the country more than the hike itself but still we had a very enjoyable afternoon. I would like to make a return trip with the salmon run is in full swing. That looks quite interesting!
