    1. Thanks for catching that one. Not sure how it slipped off that map, but we’ll work on adding it back in! Here’s a bit more information about Lower Lions: http://www.kingcounty.gov/environment/waterandland/natural-lands/ecological/lower-lions-reach.aspx. And there’ll be more work parties there in the coming months, so if you’re interested in getting involved, please contact Tina Miller, our Habitat Restoration Volunteer Coordinator, at tina.miller@kingcounty.gov – she can provide you with directions to the park and work site. Thanks!
