SEDRO-WOOLLEY — Those who participate in the Northern State Winter Trail Run/Walk: Searching for Sasquatch might just catch a glimpse of the storied creature.
A secluded mountaintop county park just outside of Mount Vernon may become publicly accessible for the first time since the land was designated a park.
SEDRO-WOOLLEY â Skagit County Parks and Recreation and its partners continue to make improvements to the Northern State Recreation Area (NSRA) as well as to the Port of Skagitâs SWIFT Center campus.
A sign now greets visitors at the NSRA Trailhead/Veterans Community Park entrance off Helmick Road, while another identifies the entrance to what is destined to become Veterans Community Plaza.
Split-rail fencing and newly installed gates now separate public from nonpublic areas on the SWIFT campus.
âThe heroes in all this are the partners who have helped us along the way, especially Skagit Trail Builders and Sedro-Woolley Rotary Club,â Skagit County Parks and Recreation Director Brian Adams said.
