Laureen and I discovered this park by accident. We lived on Whidbey Island for almost 16 years and were unaware of this place. We live about 5 miles away from it. It is a wonderful forest hike.
Hiking after the Accident

We took a sabatical after having a very bad rear-ender in our Jeep Classic the day before my birthday in November. Jeff and I are finally coming along and slowly “toodling” over some relatively flat surfaces. We are up to @5 lbs on the back. (We were used to 30+) We were looking forward to some snow shoeing and x-country this winter, but that will wait until we are able to do it again, perhaps next fall/winter. It is very hard to keep the spirits up when your body is not cooperating. I suppose the best recouperation is that I am getting some reading done (where do I want to hike?) and we WILL hike by this summer in the elevation! (If we have to crawl up that switchback!) I took one of the best hikes in my life yesterday on the ice out to the Mendenhall glacier…..
Anderson Watson Lakes Revisited

Back to our Northwestern Rain Climate! We took Angel back up to Watson and Anderson Lakes to see if we could see them. Even in the rain, it was the BEST color I have ever seen! The fall has taken hold over the elevated meadows and it was spectacular to walk through them! Found lots of berries on the bushes, so I ate my fill. Watson Lake was beautiful! A lot larger than I imagined, too! It’s good to be home!
