Tips

This is more of a lowlight. I'm not gonna lie... But you need to be warned. This section between Easton trailhead and the Yakima River bridge #4 just West of Cle Elum has very little going for it. It is flat; very flat. It has gravel; lots of loose gravel with two narrow hard-pack lines you need to stay within to move along. It parallels I-90, which creates a loud constant roar that battles the crunch of gravel for your hearing pleasure. Long parts of it are straight; very straight. The view is exactly the same the whole way; a hedge to the North and farmland to the South. Mostly, you are going to be looking forward to getting through this part of the trail. Think of it as purgatory, but also think of it as the price you will pay to visit the much more pleasant parts of the trail at either end.
