Everchanging Pacific Northwest PNW trails. It's like a new journey each time!

The Pacific Northwest was impacted by another "Pineapple Express" that brought torrential rain and record flood levels to multiple western Washington rivers.

This video was taken during a "break" between storms system. The rivers and creeks were roaring.

Parked at the large parking lot near the Middle Fork campground. Crossed the sturdy steel and wood bridge spanning the Middle Fork Snoqualmie River. Took a right at the junction and began the journey on the Pratt River Trail.

As soon as one steps foot on this trail, majestic views abound. River, mountains, peaks and this time of year, wildflowers abound!

I've journeyed on this trial multiple times to Stegosaurus Butte, Rainy Lake-Creek Trails and one time continued down the Pratt River trail to the end. Calling it the Pratt River trail is a misnomer because it doesn't actually go to the Pratt River!

This time I purposed to look for "social trails" along the first half of this trail. Found multiple trails with very pleasant with stunning views of the Middle Fork Snoqualmie River valley and surrounding majestic mountains-peaks.

I didn't look for "social trails" on the second half which is in my opinion, not so pleasant. It leads you away from the views and river and takes you into the very thick underbrush! It ends prior to reaching the Pratt River and is a bit disappointing! It's like whoever made this trail gave up or ran out of money!

As always, this journey provided an opportunity to reflect on "Letting go of how I expected life's journey to be and embrace it as it is" Easier to say than do!
