Spring brings plenty of trilliums to Portland’s parks.
At 0.5 mile, the Warbler Trail branches off to the left (west); continue north on the Flicker Trail. The route continues to wind along through the ferns and Oregon grape, crosses another creek bed on another bridge, and comes to the next junction at 0.8 mile. Here, the Towhee Trail forks off to the left (west) to SW Marquam Hill Road; continue right (north) to remain on the Flicker Trail. In short order, the trail crosses a large bridge over a gurgling creek, then arrives at a big junction, reconnecting with the Marquam Trail. To the left (west), the trail proceeds into the northern portion of the park (Hike 16) and on to Council Crest. A nearby bench offers the opportunity to sit, look, and listen.
To complete the loop, turn right at the Marquam junction and continue down the drainage. The path proceeds across several more creeks and springs on good bridges, winding its way mostly downhill on easy grade. At one point, the trail forks where the original path has collapsed into the streambed below. Fork right, upslope, around a few trees and reconnect with the main trail 20 yards farther down. After a few more twists and turns, at 1.5 miles, you’re back at the junction where you started the loop. Take the left (south) fork and proceed back to your starting point.
