Saint Edward State Park
Puget Sound and Islands
updated 3 days ago
Saint Edward State Park's trails are in good condition as of September 22. All reports indicate the park is snow-free. The roads are suitable for all vehicles, and bugs have not been a significant issue recently. Parking was noted as plentiful on July 19, though it can be popular, especially in summer. A reroute of the beach trail around an eroding section is a recent improvement. There are portapotties available at several trailheads for fall use. One section of steps on the Grotto trail is marked with danger ribbon, but otherwise, trails are dry and dusty.
