Highline Trail is a short, moderate mountain biking route in Yost Park, a city-managed park in Washington. The trail is about 0.15 miles from the park's center, and the whole out-and-back trip covers about 0.3 miles with a total elevation gain of 55 feet. The climb is front-loaded, with the steepest stretch at about 0.05 miles in, where the grade reaches 4%. The trail's low point is 262 feet and the high point is 312 feet, so it's a quick, low-elevation ride that works well as a short stop or a warm-up before heading to other trails in the area. Summer is the most comfortable time to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Everett show July and August highs around 72 to 73°F with only about seven wet days a month, while winter months bring highs in the mid-40s and rain on most days. Several other mountain biking routes sit about 0.1 miles away, including Shell Creek Trail, Cedar Loop Trail and Yost to Pine Ridge Trail. For a hike, Boeing Creek Trail is about 3.7 miles off.
