What hiking trails are really open during winter times in Seattle area?
By HikingOn | April 13, 2009
Hi!
The Mountain Loop Hwy is closed, so many of the hiking trails are out of reach. Many people said the Boulder River Trail is great this time of the year but it's not: I've been there twice now and there is too much snow.
Are there any trails in winter (untill May) still open? I don't mind driving a few hours.
Thanks!

I believe most of the lower trails in the Olympic National Park are open. The Storm King starting point west of Port Angeles has multiple trails starting there (including the easy 30 minute Marymere Falls trail), and it takes less than 2 hours to reach from Seattle via ferry from Seattle or Edmonds and drive across Hood Canal Bridge and through Sequim and Port Angeles).
