Primrose Trail Hike
Thursday, October 10th — 10am
Peggy Jackson of the Issaquah Alps Trails Club will be leading a nature hike up Coal Creek, starting at the Red Cedars Trailhead on the east side of Coal Creek Parkway. Distance about 3 miles, elevation gain 375′. Slow pace with frequent pauses for questions and information. Come and see one of the very first coal seams found by pioneers in the actual stream bed. Pass salmon spawning areas, waterfalls, massive bridges, springboard tree trunks, and coal car wheels embedded in a tree! Lots of ‘nature treats’ in a beautiful wild setting just minutes from home.

My family and I are descendants of James Greggs of Newcastle and are “First Citizens” of Washington. Are these displays still up to view?

Paulette: I believe that Jim was an avid hinter and fisherman. I believe that one of my uncles, Numa Thirion, was often his hunting partner. Would love to visit with you. Please reach out.
