Planning for the future of recreation in the Snoqualmie Corridor

DNR has embarked on a comprehensive planning process to improve recreation on state trust lands, natural areas, and other DNR-managed lands in the Snoqualmie Corridor.

Open house kicks off recreation planning
Many thanks to all the people who came to our open house on February 1 to learn more about the planning area and share with us your input about recreation on this landscape.

For more information about the recreation planning effort, download our fact sheet. In addition, you can view the presentation and read the comments from those attending the open house.

If you didn't attend the open house, here's a list of ways to stay informed and perhaps get more involved:

• Subscribe to our online updates.
• Apply to be a member of the Recreation Planning Committee. (Learn more about what's involved in being a member of the committee. Deadline for applications is February 15.)
• Send us an email: snorecplan@dnr.wa.gov

Later this spring, we will post an online survey to capture your thoughts and ideas about recreation in the Snoqualmie Corridor.
