Sandra White: Port Townsend's Larry Scott Trail

Port Townsend's Larry Scott Trail

 I have heard a lot about this trail since I moved to Port Townsend over 10 years ago, but learned a lot about it last week on a walk with my Shih Tzus. Teddy and Lulu.

After doing an errand in the Cape George area I decided to check out the most recently finished trailhead of the Larry Scott Trail, which was well worth the time. 

It has a circular parking lot, picnick table, and porta-potty for the convenience of hikers, bikers and equestrians. 

Named after Larry Scott who was a cycling enthusiast here in Port Townsend who died in 1991.  He and his wife Judy met with other cyclers weekly for long bicycle rides and were in search of dedicated mulit-use trails.  Larry was the momentum in getting this done.  Through the efforts and support of the Jefferson County Public Works and a lot of volunteers, this trail is beautifully manicured with mile post markers, and scenic beauty on both sides.

Hi Sandra;

I am sure the trail is popular with residents who commute via bicycle or foot, tourists.
