Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest - Hiking In National Forests
The Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest in Washington extends over 140 miles along the western slopes of the Cascade Mountains from the Canadian border to the north boundary of Mt. Rainier National Park. The forest provides hundreds of accessible lakes, rivers and streams, and ample opportunities for hunting and fishing, river rafting, bird watching, mountain climbing, berry picking and general sightseeing.

Olallie State Park - Trail Systems
The park is a day-use park in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains. It features dramatic Twin Falls, cliff formations, riverbanks and living old-growth trees up to 14 feet in diameter. Park activities include hiking, fishing, bicycling, picnicking, and rock climbing. Rock climbing equipment is necessary. Fatal accidents have occurred when amateurs have climbed without proper equipment. Olallie provides access to the Iron Horse Trail, an old Milwaukee Railroad path that starts in North Bend and extends to the Iowa Border.

Saint Edward State Park - Trail Systems
This is a 316-acre day-use park with 3,000 feet of freshwater shoreline on Lake Washington. Once a Catholic seminary, the park's rich history reflects in its grounds and architecture. Walks along the undeveloped lakeshore are peaceful and give the visitor many opportunities for nature study. There are 85 unsheltered picnic tables, all available first-come, first-served. A big toy playground is popular with kids. Picnicking, hiking, soccer, fishing, handball, bicycling, swimming, racquetball, bird watching softball and horse trails also are in the Holmes Point area.
