The walk will begin in the Fish Creek parking lot at 8:00 a.m. The varied habitat of sedges and grasses, shrubs, alder, willow, and conifers along with the fresh creek water mixing with incoming salt water creates a unique and beautiful estuary. Spring migration can bring flocks of sea and dabbling ducks, shorebirds, gulls, crows, and early songbird migrants. The trail is a relatively flat mile from the parking lot to the peninsula point.
