Arroyo to Teddy Bear Cove Trailblazer hike

Wow 14 Trailblazers today!! Such a fun hike on a foggy, dark, drizzly day, and a rare sighting of my spouse. Yes, he got to join us today! We parked at the Arroyo trailhead and crossed the bridge to make our way up the trail.

It seems I can't get enough of how our ferns grow everywhere here,
even all the way up trees!

and a nice waterfall surrounded by ferns.

The trail from Arroyo is a bit of narrow trail hiking -

and a bit of wide (Interurban trail) hiking -

Since my husband came along and he works for the City Parks & Rec. dept. he graciously gave us a wonderful tour of Woodstock Farm since it was on our way.

an inside tour -

and out!

After our most excellent tour we crossed Chuckanut drive and got back on the Interurban trail towards Teddy Bear Cove

and lunch!

even though we were a bit chilly after lunch, we were warmed with the fun loving spirits in our fellow hikers and friends on this our first Trailblazer hike of 2014.
