Description

This trail stays mostly in the trees with small peeks out at the Strait of Juan de Fuca and eventually Admiralty Inlet, where the Point Wilson Lighthouse stands watch. This trail is the highest point in the park that I know of and when the trees are thin enough, there is plenty to see.
