June Hikes: 3.5 to 6 miles, 400 to 1,500 feet gain - Cherry Creek Falls

This 5-mile hike with no steep sections ends at a beautiful waterfall. Let's enjoy some time on the trail together. This is a fun and social hike outing. 

Challenges: parking is roadside and can get busy on weekends - there is not a parking lot, the trail is muddy in places and there is a creek crossing so expect to have wet boots. Poles are recommended.

Carpooling is encouraged from McCormick Park in Duvall where restrooms are available at: Facilities • McCormick Park

Our goal for this morning hike will be to enjoy the outdoors and possibly see some spring wildflowers. We will take a 10–15-minute break at the falls for a snack before heading back to the cars.

Additional hike info can be found here: Cherry Creek Falls — Washington Trails Association

Weather forecast: 7-Day Forecast 47.74N 121.98W

We will aim to hike around 2.0-2.3 mph except at the Creek Crossings and travel loosely as a group.
