The first leg of the Town Loop Trail has been graded and is ready for walkers, runners, bike riders (but not quite ready for horses) to use.

The former mud bog track at 103rd Ave. SW is now a pedestrian path closed to motorized traffic.

The trail entrance is adjacent to Island Center Forest and Roseballen. Those who use the trail should keep in mind that there is no legal trail access through O Space or the Matsuda property, but this new trail segment opens a first link in the 103rd right of way, providing access between Town Center and Sawbones, the O Space and the Matsuda Farm.

The Town Loop Trail is a partnership between the Land Trust and King County. Watch The Beachcomber for news of future trail connections.
