ELWAS Coal Creek Park Bird Walk -

Saturday, May 9, 9:00 am. Rain or Shine. Meet at Coal Creek Park
Parking lot. Coal Creek Park is on the border between Bellevue and
Newcastle. To get there take I405 to Coal Creek Parkway. Go east
(south) on Coal Creek Parkway. The entrance to the park is
approximately .2 (2/10ths) of a mile South of the stoplight at Forest
Drive on the LEFT side of the street right next to Coal Creek. The park
is creekside, with very large cottonwoods, willow, alder, salmonberry
with mixed maple/fir forest coming downslope to it. The walk is uphill
on moderately narrow trails for some limited portion. We'll go as far
up as we get in an hour and fifteen minutes and then return by the same
route. I can give folks the inside scoop on other local hot spots and
I'll share some local history as well. (I've also seen bears, coyotes,
otters, and cougar tracks in the park).
