The hike treks thru stands of second growth evergreen trees.  We will take the .10 mile spur trail to the Salish Sea view point on our way up to Fragrance Lake.

After the hike, plan on stopping in Edison for a meal or snack before heading back to our meeting place.

Meeting time and place will depend on the residence locations of the participants.
