    The Geology of Fort Worden State Park •Glaciers •Bluffs •Beaches •The Human Hand Geologic processes created the land we call Fort Worden—and the land will continue to change as water, wind, gravity, people, and time influence this beautiful part of Washington. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ GLACIERS The land you see all around you is a legacy of glacial activity. About two million years ago a great, global Ice Age began. During the Ice Age, at least six glacial cycles occurred in the Puget Sound region. Each glacier— immense lobes of ice extending from the Canadian ice sheet—ground its way southward, gouging and shoving the terrain it crossed and carrying immense loads of rock from the north that were deposited as the ice moved and melted. During warmer interglacial periods, the climate was similar to today. The most recent ice advance, the Fraser Glaciation, entered Washington about 18,000 years ago. While the Puget lobe slowly filled the existing lowland between the Olympic Mountains and the Cascade Range, the Juan de Fuca lobe moved westward in the area that is now the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Global sea level dropped as water was bound up in the ice masses. At its greatest regional extent about 17,000 years ago, the ice was as much as 4,000 feet thick at Port Townsend, and its great weight pressed the land surface in this area down about 200 feet below its present level. The global climate soon began to re-warm, and sea level rose. By about 16,000 years ago, most of the ice here had melted away, leaving this region under a shallow sea.

  • Chapter 3: Existing Facilities 2010 Plan Update: the Multi-Purpose Trail Inventory in the 2002 Plan Shows the Length of the Larry Scott Trail As 4.0 Miles
    Jefferson County Non-Motorized Transportation and Recreational Trails Plan 2010 Chapter 3: Existing Facilities 2010 Plan Update: The multi-purpose trail inventory in the 2002 Plan shows the length of the Larry Scott Trail as 4.0 miles. This included both trail segments constructed to the County’s adopted standards and the existing “usage” trail on the railroad grade. Since the adoption of the 2002 Plan, Jefferson County has constructed additional trail segments. The constructed trail length is now 4.4 miles. Volunteers have developed additional segments that extend the trail to S. Discovery Road at the Discovery Bay Golf Course. These segments, while useable, are not constructed to the County’s standards and are not included in the current inventory. The remaining trail right-of-way has been acquired to the Milo Curry Road / S. Discovery Road intersection near Four Corners. Construction of the remaining trail segments is planned for substantial completion in 2011. The trail length will then be 7.6 miles. The remainder of this chapter was not revised for the 2010 Plan update. It has been retained in the original 2002 Plan format. Jefferson County, Port Townsend, Port Ludlow, Port of Port Townsend, Washington State, National Forest and Park Services, and other public and private agencies have assembled a significant inventory of non-motorized transportation and recreational trail systems within Jefferson County. These systems provide a variety of on and off-road opportunities for walking, hiking, bicycling, horse, and hand launch boat activities throughout the county. The 1998 County Comprehensive Plan provides a very limited description of the non-motorized transportation and recreational trail facilities in Jefferson County.
