Hike Description:
Shangri La is appropriately named. This is a gorgeous trail accessible from Harvey Manning (formerly Anti-Aircraft) trailhead on Cougar Mountain. Enjoy wildflowers, as well as the notable "Fantastic Erratic" glacier boulder. On clear days, views of the Olympics and much closer-in Tiger Mountain grace hikers' field of vision.

Recently, parks department has been working on a slide near the Million Dollar View vantage point, and it may still be closed on May 30.  https://www.wta.org/go-hiking/hikes/shangri-la
