@Susan Ralph

Chances are you’ll never read this comment, Susan, but if you do… I too have taken the detour through Monarch Sculptor Garden. But hey, I am bias… my friend, Lucy Ryan scuplted “Moon Tan”, the latest (and gorgeous) scuplture on display there.

The flower and rock gardens and the little maze all add up to make the whole experience an excellent deviation from a hard day’s riding on those two wheels of mine :)

I don’t see what Igor is speaking of. After reviewing the website he lists, it doesn’t show this at all. And even if it did, I don’t believe it because it goes through to Rattlesnake as he is talking about, that would go through a major watershed area for the entire region. Not likely. But it sounds like a great excuse to get out there and ride the only remaining paved trail in Pierce, King, and Snohomish on Jen’s list that I haven’t ridden yet!

Mark,

The most northern area that you can park on the Centennial is in the Bryant area. Catch Hwy 9 north our of Arlington for about 5 miles and parking will be located to your right — across from the Bryant country store and a coffee shack. The extension just to the north of here is still officially closed. I just drove by it last night and there are signs posted on the new trail head. I have no idea if you can run on it — but assume you can. Try it and come back here and share your experience.

Hi Chris,

I’m sorry — Felix last commented here back in 2007, and I don’t seem to have his contact information any more.

Jennifer,

I’d appreciate Felix’s contact info. I have an interest in the trail data from a horse rider’s perspective.

I have all available trail data (gpx) for the National Forests in the state as well as other.

Feel free to browse the maps at capitolriders.org/maps.htm

Love this trail. I ride it from the far north end South. I plan on doing it 70 miles on my 70th birthday. See you on the trail 24 May

I’m planning on running, along with a few other folks, the entire length of the trail in January of 2012. I want to add a mile to make it an even 50k run if possible. Can anyone tell me where the northern most trailhead with parking can be found? Is the trail completed or at least runnable from the Skagit county line? I would appreciate any info – if it’s a muddy mess on the north end, then what is the northern most trail head to access the paved portion north of arlington? Thanks!
