Looking forward to the future trail opportunities on Mt. Grant | Letters

As a founder of the Hardy Hikers, a 20 year old year round womens’ hiking group on Orcas Island, I am extremely pleased to support the purchase and development of Mt. Grant into a nature preserve.

It will be a place where folks of all ages can go to enjoy the natural beauty and stunning views. It feels like you are on the top of the world when you are on the summit! And it is so accessible!

20 years ago I chose to make my home on Orcas Island because of the many hiking options there. With the addition of Turtleback Mountain, there are even more.

I am now very pleased to see future trail opportunities on San Juan Island and I look forward to spending more time experiencing hiking on this beautiful island. Hooray for Mt. Grant!
