Dense Pacific Northwest forest at the east trailhead — moss-draped trees, ferns, dappled streams and rustic trailheads. Shoot atmospheric close-ups of moss and bark, wide-angle tree stems for depth, and stream long exposures after rain. Best at golden hour or soft overcast light; visit weekdays or after light rain for saturated colors. Small roadside parking; trails are unpaved and moderately easy. No entry fee but respect private drive access and seasonal muddy conditions.
