A new public trail opened at Beaverton Marsh Preserve on San Juan Island!
 
The Pintail Trail is a rustic, half mile spur traversing forest and mossy balds, sprinkled with viewpoints over Beaverton Marsh. It will be an excellent place to view migratory waterfowl over the winter – including pintail ducks!
 
A HUGE thank you to our local “Trail Blazer” volunteers for all the hours they invested in construction, as well as the REI Employee Volunteer trip, Islands Conservation Corps (ICC) and Washington Conservation Corps (WCC).
 
Look for the Pintail Trail sign along the Dragonfly Loop Trail at the eastern part of the preserve. Interested in becoming a Trail Blazer? Stay tuned as Land Bank staff are working hard to open another trail at Beaverton Marsh this year!
