Join plant specialist Ella Elman from Seattle Urban Nature (SUN) to explore restoration and daylighting projects along the Lake Washington shoreline.  We will explore Madrona Woods where community members have engaged in a 10-year restoration.  Their recent stream daylighting project has created a nearshore estuary and has allowed the stream once again to flow into the lake.  We will tour the park and look at the shoreline, riparian and upland restoration efforts.  We will then carpool to Colman Park where we will see restoration projects installed by the Starflower Foundation from 1997-2006.  We will tour the shoreline and upland portions of the park, as well as the frog pond.

 

Meet at 9:30 at Wilburton P&R at I-405 and SE 8th to carpool.  Bring snacks, water, walking shoes, and raingear.  Sunny will hand out directions to Madrona Woods at the P&R.  Option to go out for lunch afterward.
