This picturesque trail runs alongside the peaceful Gnat Creek, meandering through a mature hemlock and Sitka spruce forest. As you run, you'll be surrounded by the lush greenery of Deer fern, salal, and long strands of spike moss, creating a truly enchanting atmosphere. There is even a silhouette of Bigfoot along the trail! Keep in mind that this trail is also popular with mountain bikers, so be sure to stay alert and ready to yield the path as needed.
