- The Tolt pipeline provides water to the City of Seattle and runs from the Tolt Reservoir in the Cascades to the Lake Forest Park Reservoir. The pipeline passes though Seattle’s northern Eastside suburbs, and the pipeline’s 100-foot-wide right-of-way has been converted in part to a non-paved, multi-use trail for equestrians, dog walkers, mountain bikers, joggers, and hikers. The trail runs 12 miles from Duvall to Bothell.
- Andesite (Wikipedia)
Andesite (/ˈændəzaɪt/) is a volcanic rock of intermediate composition. In a general sense, it is the intermediate type between silica-poor basalt and silica-rich rhyolite. It is fine-grained (aphanitic) to porphyritic in texture, and is composed predominantly of sodium-rich plagioclase plus pyroxene or hornblende.
- Blyth Park (wta.org)
Blyth Park lies along the Sammamish River in the City of Bothell. Near the park entrance are all the amenities you would expect: a large parking lot, restrooms, plenty of picnic tables and a playground. One of the main attractions here is the 10-hole disc golf course (watch out for flying discs, some of the holes run across the trail!).
