The eastern part of the Grand Ridge trail can be accessed from Deer Park as a day hike and has a charm all of its own –- forested slopes carpeted with avalanche lilies in spring, wildflower meadows, and great views of the Strait of Juan de Fuca, Mount Baker, Glacier Peak, the Cascades, and the Olympic mountains. While the Grand Ridge trail starting from Obstruction Point is listed elsewhere on this website, the eastern half of the Grand Ridge Trail, starting from Deer Park, is listed here as a separate day hike to make the relevant information and trip reports easier to find.
