According to the Washington Trails Association, Green Mountain is the second highest peak on the Kitsap Peninsula. That's not saying much as it tops out at just 1,639 feet, but over our 5 mile round-trip hike and 1,000-foot elevation gain, we broke a sweat.
We drove about an hour from Tacoma to the peninsula to the trailhead. Though rain has been light, mud was on the Gold Creek Trail that we took to the top. On the way down, we took Plummer trail, which was more dry and offered some great views of the Olympics. Enjoy the pictures!
You know you're hardcore when there's a picnic table at the top of your hike.
Do you see Seattle?
Gianna needs to stop blinking in photos.

This was the "wildlife" we spotted.
