Ebey's Landing
| APRIL 3, 2010 A Mountaineers BWT hike. In a trip
report that Karen Sykes once wrote for the PI, she compared the view
from Ebey's Landing to the stuff of poetry. I had to agree with
her on this spring day--we had been snowed out of our original
destination, Barclay Lake and found the marine climate more to our
liking. The trail along the bluffs suited my preference for hiking
on ridges and had much to recommend it: sweeping views and soaring
bald eagles that repeatedly circled not far above our heads. We
hiked the trail from the cemetery, across the prairie and
counterclockwise along the bluffs, down to the beach and back up to the
prairie. The wind was brisk, the views were grand, and the
beachcombing was pleasant.
