Hall Road End Boat Launch
About
Hall Road End Boat Launch is a public beach in Washington, about a mile from the small community of Vaughn. It's a simple stop with parking, and there's no fee to use it. Swimming is not allowed here, so plan on launching or spending time along the shore rather than getting in the water. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from the nearby Tacoma Narrows weather station show July and August highs around 76°F with only four or five wet days a month, while winter brings highs in the mid-40s and rain on most days. Several trails lie within a short drive, including the Inner Loop Trail about 3.5 miles away, the Koenemann Lake Trail at roughly 4.3 miles, and the Power Line Trail and Fairview Lake Trail a little farther out.
