Little Bloom Lake nestles above the Quartz Creek drainage in the Coast Range, a short hike up and an excellent diversion from the heavy beach traffic on Highway 26. The trail mostly follows old logging roads in the Clatsop State Forest, with a foot trail fashioning a loop around the north shore of the lake. The forest here is secondary with a few old trees, both the coastal lowland species like Sitka spruce and western hemlock as well as some higher elevation conifers such as noble and silver fir. This is an excellent leg-stretcher on your way to or from the north coast.
