Let's start the hiking season with a walk in the Oxbow Loop forest hike in the Middle Fork Snoqualmie river valley, out of North Bend.
The trail is 1.8 roundtrip miles and is mostly graveled so it is easy walking. Very interesting as it goes through river forest, and an oxbow lake which is unusual in the NW, and the river.
