Old Griz — Saturday, Jan. 25, 2025

Issaquah Alps > Squak Mountain

A lot of work has been done but Old Griz trail is still a mess! The trail is currently closed. On Saturday, Issaquah Alps Trail Club and Washington State Parks led a volunteer work party to cleanup some of the debris from the November cyclone. Massive tree fall with logs jumbled in piles and gaping holes where trees were uprooted will make trail restoration difficult. State parks has been busy chain-sawing a path through the downed trees. The volunteer work party cleared smaller debris using hand tools. We made significant improvements but there is a lot more to be done.

Thank you for the update - how they can save the trail, after seeing some of the previous reports, I thought they might just abandon the route.
