For today's hike, I decided not to leave the island.  The Anacortes Community Forest Lands offers up over 50 miles of hiking trails which I decided to explore.

But first, a quick trip to Cap Sante Park for Sunrise!  A beautiful moment with just me and the Deer!

I decided to start my main hike of the day from the Whistle Lake Access with no definite route in mind.  Compared to my previous days hikes, the photo opportunities on this one were rather unexciting.  However, the trails were nice and well maintained which made for some very enjoyable hiking.

I ended up hiking almost 15 miles.  Here is the GPS track of my hike.



Afterward, I had a little bit of time before Amy was done with her work day, so I decided to check out the Kiwanis Waterfront Park which is about a 15 minute walk from the hotel.

Once I met up with Amy we decided to check out the town of La Conner, WA stopping at a few breweries along the way!
