Hike will proceed along the level flat graveled path to the single-track trail, turning around at the airport fence at the end of the runway. One side of the trail offers a transitional zone of conifers, alder, cottonwoods, and willows paralleling the runway while the other side is a bird haven of tall grasses, sedges, and other wetland vegetation. The distance from the parking lot to the end is roughly 1.6 miles. This is an out-and-back hike, and participants may choose to turn around at any time. (Low tide -1.0’ at 9:54 am)
