Cougar Mountain Trail Work Party
August 2, 2025 9:00 am - 12:00 pm
SRC will be hosting its fourth Cougar Mountain Trail work party of 2025 on Saturday, August 2nd from 9 am to noon. We have 20 miles of race course to cover before the next Cougar trail race on Saturday, August 9th, so your help will be appreciated! Please contact Mike Stewart for more details or to sign-up at trailwork@seattlerunningclub.org. Trail work parties are part of our agreement with King County that allows us to be the only organization to hold races at Cougar Mountain, so come on out to help us keep the Cougar races going!
We will meet at Sky Country trailhead on Cougar Mountain at 9 a.m. on Saturday and will work for about 3 hours. We will be using hand clippers and saws to clear the trail for the 14.5 mile and 26 mile courses, as well as marking any larger hazards so King County crews can take care of them. King County Parks provides tools and gloves and SRC provides lunch for all volunteers! Please RSVP by end-of-day Friday, August 1st to get your lunch order in (typically Panera Bread).
