Do you value the riding and recreation in Port Angeles, WA?

If so, please take this 2-minute survey to tell the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) to support and protect our world-class trails.

The DNR is conducting a survey to collect public feedback for the recreation and conservation of DNR lands within the Elwha watershed. This includes many trails in the Port Angeles area, such as Dry Hill, Coville Trails, the Olympic Adventure Trail, and the Zoo Trails.  The process will determine whether certain zones within the watershed should be designated as DNR Natural Conservation Areas.  These areas result in high standards for environmental protection and can significantly impact public access, potentially leading to the closure of mountain bike trails. 

The deadline for this survey is July 1st and your voice matters! Taking this brief survey will help ensure the DNR knows we value recreation and use the existing trails in the watershed. We need to speak up to ensure we don't lose access to any trails in our network. 

Thank you to everyone who has already participated - during the last public meeting, DNR showed that recreation is the most popular use category in the survey so far.
