About us

We lead fun and educational outings to explore nature, to showcase areas that are being preserved, and to maintain trails.  It's even more fun if you come along.

We also have other activities, including meetings, presentations, trainings, and occasionally an event from an allied organization.

Our leaders are Sierra Club volunteers, who have been certified to ensure the safety of participants and protection of our environment. They have a passion for the outdoors and a willingness to share their expertise with others.

We welcome Sierra Club members and non-members to participate. Unless otherwise stated, outings are free and open to the public. If you are interested in Sierra Club Membership, please click HERE.

Our Chapter Calendar is a good starting place to view our activities. Use the calendar's Map View tab to see locations.

This Meetup includes outings in Western Washington from Canada to Chehalis, including the Olympic Peninsula.

    Hike a scenic trail that is a hidden gem in Mukilteo. The Big Gulch trail takes you on a peaceful journey through a ravine, where you can escape the city and enjoy great views and the sounds of nature. TAs you walk, you'll be surrounded by towering trees like Douglas fir and western red cedar.

    Summary: 2.6 miles round trip with 300 ft of gain; max elevation of 460 ft at Library. Not ADA accessible. Dogs allowed on leash. Good for kids. Wildflowers/Meadows. Wildlife.
    From the library, the trail goes north and then west toward the water. We walk along the trail and it turns west and down. At the end of the trail is an access paved road to the Mukilteo Sewer building. We can rest and gather at the road or turn around and start back up. On the way back up the trail, there are convenient benches for rest stops.
