Over a decade of trail building later... The Raging River trail system will be complete this Saturday as we celebrate the grand opening of the final two descent trails, Over & Out and Wild Waves 🥳
Here is a look back at how this trail system came to life over the years:
🌲 2009 (Land Protection): Washington DNR, King County, and Mountains to Sound Greenway Trust partner to acquire and protect 11,200 acres of forestland and critical habitat.
🚲 2012–2018 (Phase 1): Recreation planning and trail construction begin, officially opening foundational trails like Raging Ridge, Flow State, and Poppin’ Tops.
🛠️ 2018–2021 (Phase 2): Expansion continues with the addition of Canyon Creek Downhill, Physical Therapy, Raging Tiger, and Dash Connector.
🎉 2023–2026 (Phase 3): The final phase completes the full network, introducing Executive Decision, Reverence, Over & Out, and Wild Waves.
