Welcome to the Issaquah Alps web site!
Volunteer Hours
Hikers please note: your time hiking counts as "Forest Watch" when you inspect the trail and report on the conditions that you find. Your work clearing limbs, cutting new brush, re-opening drains and ditches, leveling tread or filling holes all counts as "Voluntter Match" to get grant money for staff and major repairs. It also documents the fact that there are problems out there, and that IATC is doing its part to help. Please fill out the form below and send it along each time you return from a day on the trail. And thank you for your efforts!
