Where to Meet

The big map on this page is inaccurate. Please follow the directions below instead:

The entrance to the site is from the Hanford Stairs which are east of the intersection of 25th Avenue S and S Hanford ((98144 -Beacon Hill) If you park on 25th S or S Hanford, walk halfway down the stairs; there will be signs that will direct you to the work area. (You can use 3212 25th Ave S on your GPS. The stairs are at the north end of that block)

You can also reach this site by light rail. (Get off of the Mt. Baker station. The road to the south of the station will curve and go past the Hanford Stairs. There will be an event sign showing you where to turn to go up the stairs.) Give yourself extra time to get here if you come by light rail.

Where to Park

Parking is available on 25th Avenue S and S Hanford.
