The Port Angeles Walkers meet Tuesday and Thursday at 10:00 am <\/strong>at the Olympic Discovery Trail parking lot at Strait View Drive and 101 next to Morse Creek. The walk is an easy one, beginning on a 400-foot trestle bridge over Morse Creek and continuing down to the Juan de Fuca Strait, aproximately 2 -3 miles depending on how far you go before you turn around.  Walks may be cancelled when in conflict with other Newcomers’ events.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Driving Directions: <\/strong>If you are driving from Port Angeles, you\u2019ll need to make a left turn from 101 on to Strait View Drive when arriving. Be cautious when doing so. The parking lot is on the east (right) side of Strait View. When returning, take great care if you are returning to Sequim, as this left turn is extremely difficult in heavy traffic. In fact, Newcomers’ recommends that you turn right onto 101 instead, and drive to the Walmart traffic light at Kolonels Way where you can make a legal U-turn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sequim Walkers meet Monday and Wednesday at 10:00am <\/strong>at the Runnion Road Discovery Trail parking lot.  We walk to Priest Road and back, about 2 1\/2 miles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Driving Directions:<\/strong> If coming from Sequim take 101 highway to Mill Road. Turn right and follow Mill to a right turn onto Runion. The Discovery Trail trailhead is approximately .4 miles down Runion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
