West Tiger Mountain NRCA 98
- Status
- Funded in 1999
The Tiger Mountain State Forest is located near Issaquah in east King County. This acquisition will secure critical inholdings in the West Tiger Mountain Natural Resource Conservation Area (NRCA). These inholdings are threatened with conversion to uses incompatible with the viability of this important urban wildlife area. The site provides a wide diversity of habitats such as Talus Caves, Old Growth Forests, and stream corridors, and supports a variety of wildlife. This project will preserve critical wildlife habitat, open space and scenic vistas along the I-90 corridor and provide opportunities for low-impact recreational uses and outdoor environmental education. Tiger Mountain is a conservation area with great regional and local importance, and is a key portion of the Mountains-To-Sound Greenway.
Location
Immediately southeast of Issaquah; adjacent to the Tiger Mountain State Forest.
