On the way back we will hike down on Trail 2 (update) to Trail 4 and then another uphill(s) to Trail 3 and Trail 7. Then on to the North Trailhead and returning along the river.

Trip Report

The Incense Cedar Trail connecting us to Trail 5 was blazing with wood violets, camas, fawn lilies, trillium and calypso orchids. Pleasant weather and company. The uphill on Trail 6 does not get easier! Consider starting earlier if temperatures rise.
