As for the trail, there were some muddy areas, but nothing bad on the multi use trail. It seems like people are good about keeping the place clean as I didn't see any poop on the trails. I did see a bunch of other hikers and even a few people having a picnic. I enjoyed views of the pond, river and some small cliff-like areas. There is really a bit of everything, from wooded areas to open fields. I definitely enjoyed the variety. I think the only drawbacks is that gravel parking lot has a port-a-potty for bathroom facilities (I mean, it keeps in with the theme of being more wild?). There was a quite large parking lot so no issues there.

The wetland boardwalk is one of my favorites, and a bit nostalgic as I grew up in the south surrounded by marshes.

Overall, North Creek Park is a nice and very clean park for families to enjoy.

The wooden walkway on the wetlands is what makes this park unique. In a couple spots, the boardwalk does sway a bit and has small slopes that end in little puddles of water on the path (which I thought was awesome but I can see some people not liking this), but for the most part it's dry, flat, and stable for pedestrians on foot. It's not a huge park, but I think we spent at least 45 minutes exploring it. When we got to the end of the boardwalk, it turned into a gravel road that seemed to lead up to a small farm or something and a road... so we had to turn around to get back to where we started. It is not a loop. That's my only complaint. It's a simple walk with maybe not the most spectacular, but still pleasant views. The tall grass in the fields remind me of the Midwest (where I'm originally from), so it captures my heart.

We had driven past the park a number of times while it was closed for construction and were excited for it to reopen and look around. The parking lot is paved and easy to reach. The short drive into the parking lot branches off from the turn lane used to merge onto Interstate-5 Southbound. There are about a dozen parking spaces, and the only other car there when we arrived around 9:20 a.m. was a maintenance vehicle with workers out watering the plants. One other car had arrived by the time we left a little after 10:00 in the morning. The Pacific Northwest Conifer Arboretum constitutes part of the park and a map of the different trees one may find is posted by the parking lot. Gravel paths wind through the arboretum and into the rest of the park providing even surfaces kind on soar joints. We found a variety of beautiful trees and flowers as we walked around the arboretum and park. Directly along the water there is a small wooden covered area and a large draping tree with a bench under it where you can sit and look out over the water. My mom and I had fun watching the minnows swim in the bog and the flurry of insect activity around the bog's edge. Different birds flew overhead as we continued to walk around and a group of crows held their own convention first on the ground by the water, then in the tree branches. Various berries abounded, especially blackberries along the edge of the park by the covered bus stop. In our looking around, the only place to reach the water was by the large tree and covered area. A large 'X' shaped sculpture piece is part of an art program integrating art into Shoreline parks and sits centrally in a large grassy area of the park. Signage. The signage at this park is excellent. It provides historical context about the land of Ronald Bog Park and the how the park came to be. I enjoyed the sign that told the story of seven determined women who are responsible for the creation of Ronald Bog Park. Since their efforts the park has become cared for and frequented by more and more people. A happy trickle down effect of their efforts. I also liked that the sign did not include a picture of the seven women. It keeps the story about the park and what they were trying to achieve by not drawing away from the topic of the park. I enjoyed the sign elaborating what they meant by the term 'Coast Salish' people in reference to some indigenous peoples. Here indigenous peoples means Native Americans specifically North American Native Americans. Not all indigenous peoples are Native Americans. Using the term 'indigenous' is a baby step forward. Prefixes 'ind-' and 'indi-' still draw allusion to the terms India and Indian. The term Native refers to the original and first human inhabitants of an area, so the term Native Americans is more respectful. The word 'Indigenous Peoples' is a good bridge word to reaching 'Native Americans', hence a baby step forward. A baby step forward is still movement. In my opinion, failing to acknowledge progress that has been made can be equally as heinous as the original 'oppressive' act. In that essence, I applaud the informational signs/boards for not promoting false images of Native Americans. Not all Native Americans have black hair, this is easy to understand in a way similar but opposite to Native Europeans who are homogenized in the sense that all Native Europeans are white skinned. The false image of only black haired Native Americans dates back before colonization times centuries ago, so not having this propagated on the signage is a massive step forward. A leap really. Driving/riding past Ronald Bog Park over the years, the 'City of Shoreline' sign/welcome with the horse sculptures located on the boundary of the park has become iconic to me personally. Ronald Bog Park is a beautiful park in Shoreline that adds to making Shoreline/Seattle a place I am happy to call home. A place worth protecting and preserving.
