Group Walk in the Former South Paw Timber Sale, Tiger Mountain
Details
WNPS is excited to co-host this group walk with our friends at the Legacy Forest Defense Coalition (LFDC) of Washington!
Signups are at the LINK BELOW at the end of the description, NOT MEETUP.
Join Kyle Krakow, Field Biologist & Community Organizer of the Legacy Forest Defense Coalition to celebrate a forest saved with LFDC and friends! Located on the ancestral lands of the Snoqualmie Tribe in southern Tiger Mountain State Forest, the controversial South Paw timber sale was officially canceled last year following sustained opposition from the Snoqualmie Tribe and concerned residents. Experience the forest firsthand and get involved in the campaign to protect Tiger Mountain.
