It was a brisk morning for a hike yesterday but it was beautiful - we found an abandoned troll’s den! #cougarmountain

It was a brisk morning for a hike yesterday but beautiful! We found a troll’s cave! #cougarmountain

A narrow wooden boardwalk passes through a dense, moss-covered forest at Cougar Mountain. Tangled fallen branches coated in bright green moss fill the left side of the frame, while a large boulder on the right is topped with thick moss and hanging ferns. The path curves around the boulder and continues into the deep forest. Ferns blanket the ground and soft, overcast light enhances the vivid greens. The scene feels quiet, wet, and deeply immersive, like stepping into a hidden pocket of wilderness.

A narrow wooden boardwalk winds through the mossy forest at Cougar Mountain Regional Wildland Park, where fallen logs, ferns, and old-growth textures create that classic Pacific Northwest mood.
