SATURDAY MORNING HIKE - McCollum Park Forest Loop and North Creek Trail

Details

Summer walks and hikes are starting earlier to beat the heat and the crowds. At this time of year, remember sun screen, water for yourself and dogs, as well, bug spray is a good idea. Never plan to leave your dog in the car while you run errands before/after or stop for lunch.

Please keep your RSVP up to date - even if you are on the waiting list.

Please read the hike description and links provided so you are aware of the ease/difficulty of this event.
Hike an almost level forest loop trail along a creek in this Snohomish County park. It's a welcome break from the surrounding suburbia, and offers large trees and ferns, plus a few wildflowers and birds. Optionally, check out a more urbanized trail that continues on far to the south.
McCollum Park lies on the border between Everett and Mill Creek. (It's also referred to as McCollum Pioneer Park.)
At one time the land that now is the park was owned by the Merrill & Ring Lumber Company (aka "M and R") and, in a twist of folksy creativity, the neighborhood became known as "Emander." Later, a community group that championed creation of the park dubbed themselves "Pioneers of Emander."
