Celebrating America’s 250th: Northwest Walks Featuring Industrial Heritage

The Highline Journal highlights three Pacific Northwest trails celebrating American industrial heritage: Dash Point State Park in Federal Way featuring logging history with distinctive old tree stumps, Cougar Mountain Regional Park near Newcastle with coal mining sites and historical exhibits (note: Red Cedar trailhead currently closed for sewer work), and Georgetown in Seattle with the Georgetown Steam Plant and historic brick buildings from when it was an independent city. The article mentions Seahurst in Burien as a comparison point for beach types in the region.
