Meet at the 145th and I-5 P&R just north of the 145th northbound entrance on 5th NE at 6:30 AM.
In as much as there are wildflowers and butterflies throughout we will be making a good number of stops but still will maintain a moderate pace so that we can reach the scenic and botanically interesting turnaround some four miles out overlooking the river. This is a Naturalists hike.
