I grew up in Renton. Every year, our 5th grade class spent a couple of days up there. I remember it being really fun!!

Reply to Cool parents carrying their kid off trail and out onto Sul Duc Falls at Olympic by insom187
I was hiking with a bunch of friends at Snoqualmie Falls a few years ago when one of the guys, who was drunk, went off the path. The trail we were taking was a decline and took us to the bottom of the falls. While this guy was making his own path, he lost his footing, causing him to slide the rest of the way down, and because he was where he shouldn't have been, he ended up going over a 40 foot cliff, very quickly, and landing on the very large river rocks below.
This guy was 22, was in the area because he was training in the Army at Fort Lewis, and had a very bright future.
He crushed 3 vertebrae, punctured a lung, broke both ankles, and his right leg. He did survive, probably because he was young and healthy, but he was discharged from the military, had to relearn how to walk, and will only ever walk with a cane or walker.
TLDR: Hiking paths are there for a reason...
