Think Fish!
This
marks the beginning of your journey. It starts
down a gravel path..You follow the South Bay
trail to Boulevard Park, over Taylor Street
Dock, through Fairhaven, up Padden Creek Greenway
along Fairhaven Parkway, up the 'little hill'
to the Padden Gulch trail to Lake Padden.
Follow the arrows along the lake to the softball
fields at the Southeast end of the park.
Single
Track minds IIt's
one of the most challenging legs on the course.
Follow the trails through what the "WHIMPs"
call the Expert Loop. If you can make it through
the first half, you'll enjoy the second. See
warning in course
description.
Scenic
Cruise The road
course in and of itself is a great reflection
of the natural beauty that we are surrounded
by in Bellingham. A nice cruise around Lake
Samish to Fairhaven Park.
Through the Woods The
map is not
representative of where the couse goes in
the woods. The course will be well marked.
It's a long story. The course is the same
as 2008.
Bellingham
by the Bay From
Marine Park North in Bellingham Bay to the
Starr Rock buoy, turn South to the set of
piliings off of Taylor Street dock, turn
North and head past Boulevard Park to Cornwall
Beach.
Traverse
Ale Get
your team together for the last leg. The end
of Cornwall Ave. is your starting line and
Boundary Bay Brewery is the destination, a
fresh pint of Traverse Ale is your reward...Is that
incentive enough?
