Autumn 2020

Safety First on the Trail

 

Leaves are beginning to fall and cover the boardwalks. We are attempting to keep them cleared but it is a daily task.  Also, when boardwalks are wet, they're extremely slippery.

 

Because many of our Adopt a Trail volunteers are older or in the military where they are mission essential, the trail in some places is less than our standard 6' wide.

​​

A few tips for all Clear Creek Trail users:

 

Please wear a mask or have it at the ready and leash your dog.

​

We need your help keeping the trail in good shape. Please, if you pack it in, pack it out.

 

If you do walk, run or bike, please practice physical distancing by stepping to the side on narrow trails and keeping 6 ft between you and others not in your household.

Salmon return to their natal creek

​

​

The most oft asked question of WSU Stream Stewards is "When will the Salmon return?"

​

The answer has plenty to do with when then rains come and fill up the streams.

​

Join the Clear Creek Task Force at the Ridgetop Pavilion observation deck to cheer on the salmon as they make their way from Dyes Inlet all the way to the north valley past the beaver dams to the headwaters.

 

For more info and learn more, check out WSU Kitsap Extension, Clear Creek FB page and Kitsap Salmon Tours.
