Route Description for Asahel Curtis Nature Trail
The Asahel Curtis Nature Trail is a quick, easy stop off I-90 that features old-growth trees and a pretty creek. Children will love the old wooden bridge and natural interpretive signage on this trail. There does tend to be road noise, but the old trees and scenery are worth it.
The hike begins at the Annette Lake trailhead. There are several trails that begin from here, so follow the signage to the Asahel Curtis Nature Trail, which heads east. Cross Humpback Creek and walk to where the trail loops around, choosing to go either way.
Admire the mature Douglas fir, the western hemlock, and the western red cedar. When you’re ready, head back to the trailhead the same way you came in.
