Steps are estimated from the hike distance and a difficulty-based stride length.

Formula: distance in miles × 5,280 feet ÷ stride length

Stride length is adjusted because tougher trails usually shorten each step:

Difficulty	Stride length
Unknown	2.2 ft
Accessible	2.3 ft
Easy	2.6 ft
Moderate	2.1 ft
Difficult	2.0 ft
More Difficult	1.9 ft
Strenuous	1.8 ft

The result is rounded to the nearest whole step and shown as an estimate.

Part of this trail is a leg of the Pacific Northwest Trail. Great for a snowshoe or cross-country ski route during lowland snow. Glimpses of many surrounding lakes including Whatcom, Samish, and Squires. Mountain views include Blanchard, Lookout, and Chuckanut.
