Snoquera Falls Hike

Meet up at 9:30 at Farmer’s Park on Hwy 164 just west of Enumclaw.

Bring a lunch.

Hike is 4 miles round trip. Old growth forest and a big waterfall.

If you are a beginner hiker, this will be a perfect adventure for you. Kids are welcome.

The primary geological interest will be exposures of the Osceola Mudflow, one of the largest lahars in the world. This lahar (volcanic landslide/mudflow) created the Enumclaw Plateau and flowed all the way to Puget Sound. We’ll also notice some slickensides (evidence of movement on a fault).  (Note. We do not have a professional geologist for this excursion. You’ll have to make do with my amateur commentary and your own reading.)

We’ll also do a bit of trash pickup at two trailheads.

Return to Farmer’s Park by 3p.
