Complete the beak

After a couple of Sundays spent in Lynnwood and Edmonds, I figured it was time to return to Langus Riverfront Park and Spencer Island. As I've mentioned before, Sunday's my favorite day to go because weekday traffic makes the journey back a little scary; the on-ramp's basically non-existent, as are the gaps between cars. My Sunday alarm's been set for 6:30 the last two weekends, but I moved it to 5:45 to make sure I'd catch the sunrise. Turns out my timing was pretty good!

Japanese Gulch via bike

I don't know why it never occurred to me to look for videos about Japanese Gulch on YouTube before. This is a pretty neat find. You get a better idea how huge the place is than I can convey with stills.

He enters via the center and then stays in the Western portion the rest of the time, as far as I can tell. A few highlights:

0:51 Rusty Car Trail
1:46 Huge airplane goes by
2:58 Mud avoidance side path #1
3:05 Mud avoidance side path #2

I wonder if he's one of the three guys I see there a lot. They're usually with a black dog, but I can't remember what breed that dog is.
