You're welcome. It's what I used when I moved to Washington many years ago

I really like the Billy Frank wildlife refuge near Olympia - it has an amazing boardwalk you can take out over the tidal flats. https://maps.northwestportal.com/outdoors/#11.88/47.072930/-122.713852?search=true&f=namelc&q=billy%20frank That map has over 18,000 recreation opportunities throughout the state - you can filter by activity (hiking) or pass required to find something near you.

Little Mashel Falls in Eatonville would be my Recommendation. I don’t know how a lot of hikes around mount Rainier would be this time of year. Also the hikes around the hood canal would only be about 2 hours from Tacoma.

If you're hardcore drive up to the lake constance trail in the Olympics.
It's a very hard trail, be sure to bring more snacks (and a beer) than you think you'll need. Also start early so you can take more breaks.

We'll work our way up there at some point, thank you!

Thank you! We'll have to make a trip up there soon!

No problem. I would also check out Denny Creek and the other trailheads around Snoqualmie. About an hour from Tacoma.

We're up there quite often so it'll be nice to have some more trails to do!

Download the app called all trails. You'll have all the maps you need. If you go out of cell service area you might want to download them and take a battery pack for your phone.

No love for the WTA (Washington trails association) app or site I see lol. But that’s what I use

Mashel Falls has been mentioned here, so I’d like to just go ahead and throw in all of UW’s Pack Forest in Eatonville. I think the falls themselves may be on that land, but am not sure. There are all kinds of cool trails through experimental plots there. Really neat area.

Be very careful. People get hurt going down into the falls in the winter (it is quite steep) so go at your own risk!

WTA, all trails, cal topo, Gaia, and Trailforks.
I’ve got them all and all are useful for different things. Also good to have all of them to cross reference with each other too. Though overall my personal favorite is Trailforks.
