Attention:

As you know, in the past few years, the Pilchuck Tree Farm and surrounding neighbors have experienced in influx of beavers into the area. Several dams are currently flooding the area and tree crops, property and trails are being severely damages. The Pilchuck Tree Farm and several adjacent neighbors have hired a trapper to assist in the removal of beavers on the Armstrong Tract and surrounding lands. Please do not interfere with their operations or move/remove any of their equipment. It has been reported that a trap was stolen. If you witness the theft or removal of equipment; please contact Scott Bauer of the PRA immediately. 360 435 6923

In addition, the Bracken Parking Lot is in need of gravel work. Shortly the Bracken Parking Lot will be closed to complete this work. It will be closed for at least 1 week and scheduling will be weather dependent, so please plan your riding schedule to be flexible. A future notice will be posted on the PRA Website (www.pilchuckra.org) on the exact days of closure.
