This should be an enjoyable ramble along the Middle Fork Snoqualmie River. I'm looking forward to some sunshine (fingers crossed), spring blossoms, good company, and putting in some miles.
From the trailhead we'll cross the river and head east on the Middle Fork Trail. My thought is to try and reach the Dingford Creek bridge before we return along the same path, but we can amend that goal based on weather and trail conditions and group consensus.
8:30 am at the Middle Fork Trailhead. Middle Fork Snoqualmie Trailhead - Google Maps
We'll plan to be on the trail by approximately 8:45 am.
