What to Bring

Dress for the weather, wearing clothes and close toed boots/shoes that will keep you warm, dry and that you don't mind getting dirty/muddy. Bring rain gear (if there is a possibility of rain), a water bottle, and a snack if you think you will need one. Gloves and tools will be provided.

Where to Meet

The entrance to the site is from the Hanford St (98144 -Beacon Hill) If you park on 25th S or S Hanford, walk to the stairs. We will meet at the top of the stairs next to a big Douglas fir tree.

You can also reach this site by light rail. (Get off of the Mt. Baker station. The road to the south of the station is Winthrop although there isn't a sign that says that. Turn right when you get to the road. The road will curve and become Cheasty Blvd. Keep walking as the road will go past the Hanford Stairs. There will be an event sign showing you where to turn to go up the stairs.) The site is about an 8 minute walk from the light rail station.

Where to Park

Park along 25th Avenue S south of Hanford or on side streets. Leave as many of your belongings at home as possible. Do not leave valuables in your car.
