WHO WE ARE


TrailsBro was founded by a small group of students as a project to research local trails in the Western Washington region. Consisting of seniors from Edmonds-Woodway High School, the group surveys hiking hotspots in and around the Puget Sound to perform clean-ups and encourage curious onlookers to explore the beautiful sights and sounds that the Pacific Northwest wilderness has to offer.

  • Sam - When not participating in TrailsBro activities Sam enjoys playing sports,  games, and instruments. His ideal Subway order is a footlong cold-cut combo on toasted Italian Herbs and Cheese bread with pepperjack cheese; he gets lettuce, tomatoes, onions, black olives, and extra jalapeño peppers. No sauce. No cookies. No chips. No drink. Yes receipt.
  • Richard - An avid gacha gamer, Richard is struggling to hold it together, but it's okay because the school year will soon come a close, and with it, his final year of high school. He longs for the day when he can sit under the cherry blossoms and share ramen with his beloved...male companions. His ideal Subway order is a grilled chicken combo on Italian Herbs and Cheese bread with swiss cheese; he gets lettuce, tomatoes, onions, jalapeños, and Subway vinaigrette. No cookies. No chips. No drink. Yes receipt.
  • Nahum - Lead trumpet in the Jazz I ensemble at EWHS, Nahum enjoys playing music, reading, and gaming in decreasing order of importance. If he had an ideal Subway order, it would be written here.
  • Logan - Apart from being tall and closely associated with the color orange, Logan enjoys swimming, spending time with friends, and playing games. Having participated in the Knowledge Bowl, Logan demonstrates a large degree of familiarity in matters pertaining to trivia and world geography. If he also had an ideal Subway order, it would also be written here. 
  • Evan - Although he had already completed his requisites for graduation, Evan decided to join the boys in their hikes in as both a photographer and moral supporter. A trumpet player in Jazz I ensemble at EWHS and the Outreach Committee Chairman of the Students Saving Salmon Club, Evan enjoys drinking boba tea, spending time with friends, and playing music in decreasing order of importance. His ideal Subway order is a footlong cold-cut combo on toasted Italian Herbs and Cheese bread with pepperjack cheese; he gets lettuce, tomatoes, onions, jalapeño peppers, and sweet onion sauce. No cookies. No chips. No drink. Yes receipt. 
  • Bentley - A student from Mountlake Terrace High School. You may be wondering to yourself, "Why is a student from MTHS involved in a project by students from Edmonds-Woodway?" Well, we'll leave you to answer that question yourself. If he had an ideal Subway order, it would be far superior to anything that these other chumps could come up with.

Of Sights and Smells: Big Gulch's Big Day

The curtain rises on another western Washington Trail: the Big Gulch trail system. Located right off Mukilteo Speedway, Big Gulch trail can be accessed at its southern trailhead at the Mukilteo Library. The trail may also be accessed at its northern trailhead, which is located at 92nd Street Park. While the former trailhead has highway access, the latter is easily accessible to Mukilteo residents, making it a great hotspot for hikers and joggers. When we hiked the trail, we began at the southern trailhead and continued down the western fork of Big Gulch trail, which leads to the Puget Sound. ...is what I would say if the trail actually led to the shore. Instead, it leads to— and get this — a wastewater treatment plant. Yeah, you read that right. More on this below.

Hello, Old Friend: Meadowdale Beach Park Revisited

We arrived back to the scene where it all began, now armed with the trash collecting skills of previous hikes. Being the cynics that we are, we of course expected the trail to once again be polluted with myriad bags of dog poop, water bottles, and other miscellaneous waste that wouldn't have otherwise been on the trail if society didn't suck. What we found—or rather didn't find—blew us away; there was actually not that much trash. Since we've already elucidated this spot before, we won't bore you with the same details.  A Mountain to Climb, a Hill of Trash This time, the beach was even nicer due to better weather; the same goes for the amount of trash—albeit not due to the weather because that's kind of not how things work. Rather than finding almost thirty water bottles on our excursion, we only happened to find two. None of them were even filled with pee! In addition to the water bottles, there were precisely ten bags of dog poop. While not nearly as many bags...
