My Annual Hike at Ebey’s Landing
August 24, 2012
When I have company from out-of-town, I like to take them to Ebey’s Landing, one of my favorite hikes on Whidbey Island. This loop trail provides a perfect slice of Pacific Northwest life — a ferry ride to get there, expansive views of Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains, bucolic rural scenery, and a beach walk. It’s not too strenuous, and a breeze keeps you cool even on a hot, sunny summer day.
We experienced a special treat on this most recent hike — a plein air artist was working on a landscape in oil pastels. I always love to see artists at work.
