Run the Maple Trail Loop

07/06/17

I was only able to complete half of the loop because there is work being done on Maple Trail. As well as some other trails I passed along the way. Signs throughout the forest read that trail closures through the park would continue through summer 2017 to spring 2017. I followed the loop until Koening Trail and turned around making for pleasant and shady 6 mile out and back run. Even with the closures I still highly recommend this park. The forest is quiet and peaceful. Barely any foot traffic.

Hike the Upper Salmonberry River Trail

07/06/17

I strongly suggest doing some research on the accessibility of the Salmonberry trail before making the trek out to Tillamook. I arrived on the trail July 2017. Upon my arrival I was disappointed to see a number of signs that said the Salmonberry trail was officially closed and dangerous. The sign continued to say that it would eventually be a trail but at this time hikers that continued on the trail would be prosecuted. I continued on the trail to the west for about .5 miles anyway. The train tracks were covered in overgrowth but I was able to walk along side of the tracks. After .5 miles I gave up and turned around. This seems like an awesome hike looking forward to it opening back up.
