Green Mountain

Category Overview

Trails grants help communities and recreation areas fund the creation and improvement of trails for walking, hiking, cycling, horseback riding, and cross-country skiing. These grants help make communities more livable, create regional trails systems, and open up beautiful outdoor spaces for people to enjoy. WWRP is the largest source of trail support in the state of Washington.

Project Highlights

The City of Camas closed on the acquisition of Green Mountain on Nov. 5, 2021. This grant will reimburse the city for a portion of the acquisition cost. All RCO required documentation has been submitted. Next steps will be to partner with Clark County to jointly master plan the Green Mountain properties – City owns 115 acres and the County owns 320 acres. The master planning process will kick off in 2024.
