An Afternoon Walk

Suquamish Totem Pole

The town of Suquamish is the former location of an native American settlement, and was the home area for Chief Sealth, the person after whom Seattle was (mis) named. This totem pole is located on the southern edge of town, overlooking Puget Sound.

In The Forest

We walked along the beach to Suquamish, then followed a trail and several streets back to our hosts. There are several pieces of trail, providing a walking route to houses south of town. The beach is completely covered at high tide, so a land route is required. This is probably the most attractive part of the trail.
