Three Friends Fishing Hole Development
- Status
- Funded in 2001
This combination project acquires 9+ acres. Development activities include: construction of a new trailhead and 1/2 mile of the Green River Trail; picnic shelter/restroom; 37 car parking lot; accessible fishing area; and native plant landscaping. The accessible trail will allow fishing close to the river, where steep slopes currently make bank fishing inaccessible. It will become the only accessible fishing area on the Green River. Native plantings along the greenbelt will help buffer the adjacent industrial area. The Boeing Company is donating nearly $1.8 million in property towards this project.
Location
From I-5, take the Orillia Road exit, and turn east onto Orillia Road. Head down the hill, the road becomes 212th St. You can not turn left onto Russell Road, so go past the site, turn left onto the new road (the first left), do a U-turn. Turn right onto Russell Road and park at the barricade. The land from 212th to 196th St., on the east side of the Green River Trail, from the OHW of the river 200 feet east is the land donation.
