North End Hikes and Walks with Dogs – Saturday Morning Walk/Hike – Barnum Point, Camano Island
March 19, 2022 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
Welcome to spring season. Rain happens, but i try not to let it stop us. High winds or torrential rain, however, will cause me to cancel completely or change what we do. Please check in the morning of the event to see what is happening. Arm yourself for seasonal weather swings. Please keep your RSVP up to date – even if you are on the waiting list.

Jutting out into Port Susan Bay, Barnum Point guards the entrance of Triangle Cove. Here, juvenile salmon migrating from the Stillaguamish River across the bay find a refuge, with the forest and bluffs of Barnum Point providing the woody debris, shade and “insect rain” they need to thrive.
There are some nice trails to walk, beach access and if the tide is low enough we can make it a loop by walking one way along the beach.
Distance: 3 miles
Elev. Gain : 300 ft
Path Type: dirt, possible beach walk (rocky beach)
Parking: small lot available
Permits/Passes: none
Dogs: allowed on leash, poop must be scooped.
Humans: vaccinated against covid or mask must be worn.
From I-5, about 20 miles north of Everett, take Exit 212 and head west on Hwy 532. Pass through Stanwood and cross the Stillaguamish River to reach Camano Island. In about 3 miles, Hwy 532 curves around to the left and comes to a signal light at Sunrise Blvd. Turn left here and follow Sunrise Blvd for about 2.75 miles. When Sunrise Blvd turns sharply left into Moe Rd, don’t make that turn! Just slow down and proceed straight ahead on the short gravel road. You will find yourself in the small parking area for Barnum Point Preserve. There is room here for 6 or so cars (as of Spring 2019.) A plastic privy is available, but no source of drinking water. A large bulletin board displays a trail map for the preserve. Future plans (i think it has been enlarged) for the preserve include a larger parking area. The park is open from dawn to dusk.
