Step Up for Public Lands on National Trails Day

Join the Mountains to Sound Greenway Trust and partners for a day of action in the Middle Fork Snoqualmie Valley! Grab your friends and family and help keep Washington’s trails safe and beautiful. Together, we can make a real difference—restoring trails, protecting public lands, and committing to recreate responsibly all summer and beyond.

📅 Saturday, June 7, 2025
📍 Middle Fork Snoqualmie Valley
🛠️ Volunteer Trail Work: 9 a.m. – Noon
🎉 Cheers for Volunteers: Noon – 2 p.m

What To Expect:

Pick a work party (sign up below), meet at your designated trailhead, and get your hands dirty making a difference. No experience necessary — we’ll teach you everything you need to know! After the morning’s efforts, we’ll all come together at the Middle Fork Trailhead for a well-earned celebration. All projects are just a short drive—or even a (scenic) walk—away from the afterparty.

✅ Work at your own pace to restore and maintain trails alongside fellow nature lovers

✅ Give back to the landscapes that give us so much

✅ Connect with our partners to learn about essential outdoor topics like Leave No Trace, wildlife safety, and more

✅ Kick off summer with a commitment to Recreate Responsibly

✅ Celebrate your hard work at our Cheers for Volunteers afterparty with food, drinks, and giveaways!

Cheers for Volunteers!

After a morning of trail maintenance, join your fellow volunteers back at the Middle Fork Trailhead (around noon) to celebrate all your hard work with food, drinks, and giveaways!

Lunch will be generously provided by a local deli — Falling River Meats (vegetarian options will be available). All volunteers will also be entered for the chance to win cool items like REI gear, EVO and Brooks Running gift cards, and more.

Check out the volunteer options below and sign up today!

If an event is full and you’d like to be added to the waitlist, please email kasey.shultz@mtsgreenway.org. If you sign up and are no longer able to attend, please let us know so we can open your spot for someone else!

Camp Brown Day Use Area

Camp Brown is a lovely 0.5-mile ADA accessible trail with many picnic sites along the river. Our work will include repair and maintenance to trailhead facilities, and maintenance to the picnic areas, river access ramp, and the main loop trail to keep them open and accessible for all. Brushing, drainage improvements, and some surfacing will all be part of the day.

Garfield Ledges

Constructed in 2018, this popular 1.1 mile trail climbs up to a rock ledge with sweeping views of the Middle Fork valley. We will focus on improving tread and drainage on this moderately steep trail. Please note that accessing this trailhead involves a few hundred feet of dirt road with a lot of potholes.
