Bruce Burger • Ethan Evans Now, we’re kicking off a monumental summer of trail maintenance, Thomas Goldstein • Joe Gregg • Ken Helm an unexpected and happy outcome from the challenges of COVID. As Titti Ringström • Arun Sambataro many of us turned to the outdoors to lift our spirits, our trail system’s Ken Myer • Mason White • Britt Provost Jennifer Surapisitchat long-standing challenges became abundantly clear. This reality has led to some long-awaited responses to the repeated calls for increased public investment by WTA advocates and many others. WTA Leadership The swiftest and biggest response was the Great American Outdoors Chief Executive Officer Act (GAOA), which Congress passed last summer. The GAOA provides Jill Simmons nearly $2 billion annually for the next 5 years to make a significant dent in the deferred maintenance backlog across federal lands, including Washington Trails Staff national parks and Forest Service lands. But there were other wins too, Washington Trails Editor | Jessi Loerch including important step ups in outdoor recreation funding during Hiking Content Manager | Anna Roth the 2021 state legislative session for No Child Left Inside, Washington Graphic Designer | Jenica Nordström Wildlife and Recreation Program and the Department of Natural Copy Editor | Cassandra Overby Resources. WTA’s community played a critical part in these funding achievements, Volunteers and our community will also have a key role in putting the funding to work. Thanks to our strong partnership with the U.S. Forest Service, the Contributors | Doug Diekema, GAOA will support WTA volunteer crews working across Washington’s Hannah Meyer, Cassandra Overby, national forests.

Trail Team | Ken Giesbers, Lindsay Leffelman, Craig Romano, A busy summer of WTA trail work is just one of the ways things are Charlie Wakenshaw slowly getting back to normal — or “new normal” as many are calling it. I like the idea of “new normal” because it means we’re carrying forward important lessons from the last year — including that nature is essential for our wellbeing and trails need increased and ongoing investment. If we carry those lessons forward into action, I believe the future for trails and hikers is very bright, and that WTA’s ambitious upcoming summer season is just the beginning of a reimagined trail system.

It provides a foundation for further planning to ensure that County leadership, agencies, and citizens are aware and prepared to meet the effects of disasters and emergencies. Incident management cannot be event driven. Through increased awareness and preventive measures, the ultimate goal is to help ensure a unified approach that will lesson vulnerability to hazards over time. The HIVA is not a detailed study, but a general overview of known hazards that can affect Jefferson County. Jefferson County Hazard Identification and Vulnerability Assessment 2011 3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY An integrated emergency management approach involves hazard identification, risk assessment, and vulnerability analysis. This document, the Hazard Identification and Vulnerability Assessment (HIVA) describes the hazard identification and assessment of both natural hazards and technological, or human caused hazards, which exist for the people of Jefferson County.
