Equestrian Community Trails  First identified in November 2001  Are defined as existing trails:  within the rural and resource areas  historically been used by the public for non-motorized use  Trails provisions (in zoning code) outline ways to voluntarily donate easements  King County Parks approves donations and monitors easements  To date, about 3 miles have been conserved countywide.  King County Parks working with equestrian groups to create better trail maps  Goal is to preserve existing trails that provide connectivity

.

The respective forest stewardship plans for both Danville-Georgetown and Henry’s Ridge will include trail use and stewardship recommendations. King County would like public input on the following proposals regarding use of the trails by non-motorized users:  hikers (including runners)  mountain bikers  equestrians

Trails at both sites will be open to all trail users with no restrictions.

Trails at both sites will be open to all trail users with no restrictions. Trails at both sites will be open to all users with no restrictions and with the following conditions: Signage at trailheads would identify which trail group predominantly uses the site and performs the majority of stewardship for that site. For example, signage would alert trail users that Danville- Georgetown is used and stewarded by the Backcountry Horsemen, and Henry’s Ridge is used and stewarded by the Evergreen Mountain Bike Alliance. The respective groups would work together to communicate to their respective members that any separation of use is voluntary.

Trails at both sites would be restricted to hiking and equestrian use only at Danville-Georgetown, and hiking and mountain bike use only at Henry’s Ridge, with the following conditions: At Danville-Georgetown, the area south of the Seattle pipeline would be dedicated as a horse trail training area. The Tahoma Junior High School mountain bike club would be allowed to use the Danville-Georgetown trails on a weekly basis and under a King County special use permit. A trail link between the pipeline and the school via the Skunk and Putnam trails would be open to mountain bikers.

Trails at both sites would be formally dedicated for specific uses with no exceptions. Danville-Georgetown would be used exclusively by equestrians and hikers. Henry’s Ridge would be used exclusively by mountain bikers and hikers.

Trails at both sites would be formally dedicated for specific uses with no exceptions. Danville-Georgetown would be used exclusively by equestrians and hikers. Henry’s Ridge would be used exclusively by mountain bikers and hikers. We are now ready to hear public comment and input.
