Schmitz Preserve Park in West Seattle is an oasis of forest just off of busy Southwest Admiral Way.
It has towering cedars and Douglas firs, giant big-leaf maples and a carpet of ferns across the forest floor. Yet you can get there by bike, bus or car in under a half hour from downtown Seattle.
I recently explored the park with David B. Williams, local natural-history writer and author of "Seattle Walks."
