The hike to the first fall took about 45 minutes. the trail to the 1st fall was cool and mostly shady. The first fall has small water areas for kids to play, you can walk along the creek and explore. We spend a good hour there. The main trail after the first fall takes another ~45 minutes hike up the mountain which is rocky and sunnier but amazing view of the mountain and the fall is beautiful and peaceful. Did not continue to hike to the 3rd fall and to the lake. But would definitely come back to this trail. The trail is great for everyone, family with young kids and dogs

*Bike Rentals * Corporate Events * Summer Camps Compass Outdoor Adventures was originally incorporated in 2006. The founder, Luke Talbott, was teaching fifth grade in the Snoqualmie Valley when he began to notice a trend in his students. Creative problem solving seemed to be taking a back seat to immediately quitting when something got difficult. Exploration and curiosity became secondary to playing it safe and relying on adults. He realized that to do something great, he would need to go outside the four walls of the classroom and get kids into an environment where they could truly learn what it is like to be alive. Starting in 2008, the first Compass summer camp began with a total of 12 kids. Campers hiked, biked, explored, and got dirty in the forested corridor of Interstate 90, all within 25 minutes of their homes. By 2016, over 400 summer campers, thousands of field trip participants, and hundreds of corporate folks were taken out into the wilderness and shown their true capacities were far more than they ever imagined.

A popular mountain biking trail located just outside Seattle.
Nice, wide rail-trail, though perhaps better suited to gravel or mountain bikes than hiking. The tunnel is quite dark and cold at all times of the year, and good lights are a necessity. With COVID a mask is recommended even if there aren't people right around you since it is a relatively closed environment. Inside the tunnel is a packed surface that can readily be handled by wheelchairs and road bicycles. Outside the tunnel the trail surface is gravel. There are hands-free flush toilets and hands-free faucets at the Hyak trailhead, with ample parking and picnic tables. Discover Pass required for parking. Pleasantly surprised to see a bike stand and compressed air dispenser by the restrooms! Heading east along the trail one can find views of the lakes, trail-side camping areas and road access to the nearby towns. Very peaceful.

Visited Rattlesnake Lake Recreation Area recently on a fall weekend (a Sunday) for a memorial service in the Cedar River Watershed education center. The location, including lake and mountains, is beautiful, especially with the leaves turning color. The buildings fit seamlessly into the surroundings. The kitchen was well set up and the staff was very helpful. Would love to come back and explore the center more thoroughly.

Switchbacks. If you are in the mood for switchbacks, then this is the hike for you. It is fairly steep - probably a 10-15% grade. From November to April, you should be prepared for a bit of snow near the top of the trail. The trail is fairly busy and parking can be difficult to find on weekends by mid-morning. You will need a Discover Pass to park here, which can be obtained at many area grocery stores, at REI, and at ranger stations (or at the DMV if you are a Washington resident). Tip #1 If you continue along the ridge at the top, there is a nice rock scramble to the true summit called the haystack. That last bit will take about 45 minutes. Tip #2 There is an “old trail” up Mt. Si that starts from the Little Si trailhead that is much less trafficked, more rugged, steeper, and less switchbacky. To take it, start on the Little Si trail. A few hundred yards in, you will see a junction with the Boulder Garden Loop trail. Continue past it on the Little Si trail until the next junction, also with the Garden Loop trail. Take a right turn on this part of the Garden Loop trail and continue to the Old Mount Si trail junction. It is not marked, but it heads directly up the hill and is significant enough that you shouldn’t miss it.

Did this hike with a small group of family & friends. Beautiful scenery the entire way through and easy to follow. Trail is kept clean and has a ton of great spots for photos. Easy to get to off the highway and we would definitely recommend this as a great way to spend an afternoon.
