From I-90 East, take exit 10A and merge onto I-405 South. Take exit 4 from 405 S for WA-900 W toward WA-169 S/Renton/Enumclaw. Take WA-169 S to 231st Pl SE in Hobart. Turn left onto WA-169 S, follow for 10 miles. Turn left onto Witte Rd SE, then turn left onto SE 228th St. Follow this street until you see Greenway and King County event leaders and signs.
The specific site lies alongside a side channel of the Cedar River, which is also used seasonally by salmon. The exact location of this event was formerly a single family home residence. Now, it is a canvas for King County, Mountains to Sound Greenway Trust, and volunteers such as yourself to improve native plant survival and soil quality alongside this side channel of the Cedar River.
Be sure to come out and experience the beauty of this natural area near Maple Valley. No experience necessary, all training provided. Thank you for coming out to volunteer!
