July 18, 2013 Hike at Dash Point State Park

Today we went for a mid-day hike at Dash Point State Park, in Federal Way Washington. This state park is on the shore of Puget Sound, and is only a few miles from Decatur High School. The hike starts at shore level and follows a small creek through the woods. We saw a few banana slugs along the trail. We also found a huge old tree trunk and a tree slide. Claire loved the slide and enjoyed putting her hands in the cold creek water.

This hike was fun but the steep stairs up some of the hills were difficult for Claire to climb. The trail was quiet, clean and not busy. We walked down to the beach after the hike and had a nice picnic lunch while the tide came in.






 

Overall, this was a fun mid-week, local hike.
