To allow people of all ages and abilities to enjoy nature this project will develop a half mile nature trail with seating in a peaceful, undeveloped setting.

Project Results

Four benches were placed along the "universal access" trail in the Pine Street Woods, a destination that is regularly visited by people of all ages and mobility abilities. To bring attention to the trail's debut, volunteers with the Kaniksu Land Trust led walks and snowshoe tours.
