Located on the beautiful Kitsap Peninsula, Clear Creek Trail is almost 8 miles from Silverdale Waterfront Park on Dyes Inlet north to Trigger Avenue. It follows Clear Creek as it meanders through riparian areas, wetlands, and remnant forests. Hard to believe it's in the middle of a highly developed urban area.

That Stinky Salmon Stream
Every year the salmon begin to spawn when the rains come and Kitsap's streams fill in readiness for the the Salmon's return. They're back from their travels in the waters off Alaska to their natal stream to spawn and complete their life cycle.
You can view the returning salmon in Clear Creek now. Around 20 have been spotted at the Ridgetop observation deck (adjacent to 9228 Ridgetop Blvd.) in the last week. With more to come!

Giving Tuesday!
Giving Tuesday is a global Day of Giving whether it be a kindness, your time or a generous donation to make your community a better place.
With Black Friday, Small Business Saturday (or is it Sunday?) and Cyber Monday, there are many ways to spend your hard earned cash.
As a non-profit, all volunteer organization, we rely on you, your family and your friends to support our mission to preserve, protect and restore Clear Creek - a salmon stream.
You can still view the returning salmon in Clear Creek. Hundreds now line the banks of the intertidal zone, fertilizing plants and feeding all manner of bugs, birds and mammals.
More than 400 have been spotted at the Ridgetop observation deck (adjacent to 9228 Ridgetop Blvd.) since late October!
It's leaf blowing season!
Until the trees are bare
The recent wind storms, left a fair amount of debris on the trails.
Three good sized trees came down across the trails. They've been cleared by our friends at Great Peninsula Conservancy.
But there are still small branches and a lot of leaves that need to be dealt with. Leaves, especially on the boardwalks are a hazard to you and the longevity of the boards themselves.
You see, the leaves trap moisture, moss grows and dirt collects and the boards become very slippery.
Join us as we endeavor to blow, rake and sweep leaves off the boardwalks. Rain or shine, young and old, help us clear the trails of leaves and branches. Once cleared we'll sprinkle a little sand down for a nice stroll on the trails.
