A Ramble Southbound on the Burke-Gilman Trail, part 1/5, January, 2024

This is part one of a planned 5 of the Seattle section of the Burke Gilman trail, a popular exercise trail that runs through the northern end of Seattle. This being southbound and winter, we are headed directly into the morning sun. Flashing Light Warning. That said this is the first three miles of the fifteen that are in the city limits and will eventually go from today’s Lake Forest Park/Seattle border, all the way to Golden Gardens. I plan to do one of these every other month to catch the changing seasons, so stay tuned! Enjoy!
