The Greenway Connects it All JULY 2019 - JUNE 2020 ANNUAL REPORT Connected with nature, our lives are better.

The Mountains to Sound Greenway National Heritage Area is an iconic 1.5 million-acre landscape that connects Central Washington, the Cascade Mountains, and Puget Sound. The Greenway promotes a healthy and sustainable relationship between people and the land by holistically balancing built and natural environments. The Greenway landscape provides places for nature and wildlife, for culture and tradition, for outdoor recreation and education, for working forests and local agricultural production, while embracing vibrant urban areas. The Greenway is valued by a broad cross-section of society, working together as an effective coalition to conserve this place and its heritage for future generations.

LANDSCAPES

Way back in the summer of 2019, the designation of the Mountains to Sound Greenway as a National Heritage Area still sparkled like sunshine on a mountain lake, th Acres in Acres of land motivating good work across the Greenway. We celebrated the 200,000 tree planted 427 restoration 4,950 conserved with Carter Subaru and Carter Volkswagen, and more than one million trees planted across King County. The Towns to Teanaway project added new trails from Ronald, and the City of Bellevue broke ground to fill a critical gap in the Mountains to Sound Greenway Trail. The Clean Water Ambassadors program empowered another cohort of Native trees & young environmental leaders. 44,207 shrubs planted Then, suddenly, everything changed. The global pandemic brought the world to a standstill even as a national reckoning about racial and social justice moved people to their feet. Uncertainty about public health, the economy, and social change hung CONNECTIONS like a cloud.

And yet, even in the face of challenge and adversity, the constructive, collaborative spirit of the Greenway coalition shone through. New safety protocols enabled restoration work to continue along the Raging River and Issaquah Creek. With schools closed, the Greenway Trust’s education program went online, sharing environmental education curricula via videos with at-home activities. As people started to venture outdoors again, the Greenway Trust joined with the Recreate Responsibly Coalition to + Miles of trail + Recreation promote safety on the trails. And Greenway Trust staff committed to an evaluation of 60 maintenance $723K improvements how we can make our programming more inclusive, and how we help ensure that the benefits of being connected to nature are shared more equitably across completed our communities. PEOPLE If there is one constant amid our rapidly changing world, it is that the Greenway landscape endures. It offers inspiration, respite, sustenance, and renewal that we all need more than ever as we navigate these challenging times.

In November 2019, as part of our strategic planning process, the Greenway Trust engaged a facilitator and coach to guide us on an examination of why diversity, equity, and inclusion matter for the Greenway Trust’s mission, and to help us develop a positive action agenda. Our efforts became tangibly urgent as the entire country began to confront the realities of systemic racism, inequity, and injustice in the spring of 2020. We know we have hard work to do in order to become a trusted, collaborative, inclusive partner with Black, Indigenous, and People of Color, and to do our part toward building a more just and equitable society. We will share updates about the steps we are now taking to make our programming and organizational culture more welcoming and supportive of all who share an interest in the Greenway. COVID-19

When stay-at-home orders were issued in response to the first COVID-19 outbreak, we hoped it would be a temporary disruption before life and work returned to normal. After the Mountains to Sound Greenway earned Congressional designation as We soon learned that “normal” would never be the same again as social distancing a National Heritage Area (NHA) in March 2019, the Greenway Trust assumed an requirements, limits on in-person gatherings, and school closures have stretched on. important new responsibility as the NHA Coordinating Entity. Personal Protection Equipment (PPE), Zoom meetings, online learning, and recreating responsibly have become familiar parts of our daily routine. What hasn’t changed, Goals of the NHA designation include: though, is our commitment to celebrating and stewarding the Mountains to Sound Greenway. We hope that 2021 marks the start of the end of the pandemic. Until then, 1. Amplifying the region’s rich history and natural heritage through interpretive and stay safe, wear a mask, keep your distance, and recreate responsibly. educational programming. 2. Strengthening pride of place and opportunities for public engagement. 3. Supporting ecological restoration across multiple jurisdictions and watersheds. 4. Encouraging private and public partnerships and interagency coordination. 5. Promoting responsible tourism and sustainable economic opportunities.

Our first task for the new NHA is to develop a cooperative management plan that lays out the strategies for achieving these goals, including an interpretive plan. We are also committed to developing the management plan in consultation with tribes so that their heritage and abiding connection to this place is properly recognized and respected.

This year, we convened an NHA Advisory Committee that is guiding development of the cooperative management plan. Stay tuned in the coming year for updates on the planning process and opportunities for public input. Engaging Next Generation Leaders Through the Clean Water OUR WORK Ambassador Internship Program In summer 2019, we partnered with King County Wastewater Treatment Division to hire 12 Clean Water Ambassador interns. In this program, interns gain valuable field Urban Communities experience, hone their leadership and communication skills, and make professional connections within the environmental community.

Through taking experiential field trips and interviewing professionals in environmental careers, interns learned about urban and natural water systems, including the key role of salmon and the ways human activity affects water quality. They also researched and created proposals on outreach and education opportunities within their own school and community.

Online Educational Series The Greenway Education Program was among many environmental education programs impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. We saw 1,700 students in the fall, but then had to cancel programming for more than 2,000 students in the spring. We had to be extra nimble as we adapted to pandemic restrictions.

Greenway Trust educators made two series of videos paired with at-home activities for our two most popular curricula. “Forests and Fins” focuses on stream/forest ecology and the life cycle of salmon. The videos explore salmon habitat needs, threats, and how we can help protect them. “Next Generation Stewards” broadens students’ understanding of the connections among the living and nonliving parts of a Pacific Mountains to Sound Greenway Trail Gap Groundbreaking Northwest forest. The City of Bellevue broke ground on a new section of the Mountains to Sound Greenway Trail in October 2019. This trail will connect cyclists and walkers from the I-90 floating bridge all the way to Issaquah. The new segment of the trail will include a bridge over Factoria Boulevard to separate bicyclists and walkers from automobiles, a tunnel under the existing I-405/eastbound I-90 ramps, increased capacity for the eastbound off-ramp to Factoria Boulevard, and a 12- foot pedestrian and bicycle path heading eastward.

The Mountains to Sound Greenway Trail represents a key east-west connection in the world-class regional trail system we enjoy. The future vision is that a walker or bicyclist could travel on safe, enjoyable, nonmotorized trail connections between the Puget Sound urban areas and across the Cascades into Central Washington. Planting Our 200,000th Tree with Carter Subaru and Carter Volkswagen The idea of a trail through Eastgate began as Bellevue residents and planners worked to envision a transit-oriented, walkable neighborhood in a location originally designed Our 11-year partnership with Carter Subaru and Carter Volkswagen celebrated a for automobiles. The Greenway Trust secured the original National Scenic Byways grant major milestone when we planted our 200,000th tree together as part of our annual in 2011, with additional funds from City of Bellevue, Puget Sound Regional Council, tree planting kickoff in October 2019. Our tree planting efforts also made significant and construction funds from the Washington State Legislature. contributions toward King County’s 1 Million Trees campaign.

Since 2016, the Middle Fork USDA Forest Service Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest (USFS), there’s a new trail campaign has raised almost $9 million and has nearly completed the critical first phase for hikers to enjoy in the Middle Fork Snoqualmie River Valley: Garfield Ledges. This of the campaign: intentional development of infrastructure (trails, trailheads, sanitation, trail is easily accessible by way of the newly paved Middle Fork road and reaches a signage, etc.) to ensure safe, ecologically sustainable recreation along the newly paved scenic viewpoint in just over a mile, providing a big payoff with modest effort. 10 miles of the Middle Fork Road. It has been thrilling to see the public and private sectors coming together to invest in the future of this priceless community asset.

The cultural resource survey process identifies and maps artifacts and sites of cultural, historical, and tribal significance, ensuring such areas are not disturbed by new construction. The Greenway Trust contracted with Perteet to conduct archaeological assessments of the sites, document new findings with appropriate state departments, and provide comprehensive recommendations for how to proceed with the projects. All of this means the TCF partners will soon be able to break ground on much-needed recreational amenities, and the Greenway Trust has gained a new relationship with Perteet (who has gone on to work with us in Issaquah!)
