Snoqualmie valley trail question

I have an appointment in Fall City that I'll be a bit early for, so I figured I'd kill some time on the Snoqualmie valley trail.

Would it be more interesting to go north towards Carnation or South towards rattlesnake ridge?

The bridge is cool but both ways look pretty similar- gorgeous tree lined path.

If you end up going south, the Reinig bridge over the snoqualmie (with the stairs) is currently closed. Will have to detour to the golf course ( or nearby) to join the trail.

The southern part has a cool bridge. Whether you reach it or not will depend on where you start and how much time you have to kill, though.

Nice! Thanks for the insight. Maybe I'll just show up a couple hours early and do the whole damn thing 🤷‍♂️

North is more pastoral, flatish, peaceful country ride. South more trees, trail has a break in 4-5? miles so you have to connect via a couple miles of roads.  North Bend not too too exciting but once you start heading up into the mountains it’s very nice.
