Mid Fork Snoqualmie Invasive Weed Project
Project Description
Plant enthusiasts, hikers and other concerned citizens are encouraged to join the ongoing effort to locate (and control) invasive species in the beautiful Middle Fork Snoqualmie Valley.
The Middle Fork invasive weed project is looking for volunteers to become weed watchers along the beautiful trails of the Middle Fork Snoqualmie Valley. Help survey the valley's spectacular trail system for invasive weeds so we can stop them before they get entrenched. We’re surveying trails from Mt. Si near North Bend to Dutch Miller Gap in the heart of the Alpine Lakes Wilderness. Read the project reports below to see what we've found so far. To sign up to survey a trail or for more information, email Mark Boyar. To find out about weed removal work parties in the Middle Fork, see the Mountains to Sound Greenway Trust website.
