@ajaxStardust it’s the burke-gilman trail, the first rail-to-trail, and the most important bike corridor in the seattle area.
and definitely not for cars.
ahhh. dang.
that's terrible. and it's (obviously) not a forest ranger (municipal/ gvt plates)?
what is "rail to rail"?

If you follow it long enough you can get to some actual wild area trails - Burke Gilman to Sammamish River to... Tolt Pipeline, going east, would let you get into the foothills where you can get some actual forest trails.
"Rail to Trail" is a programme of adapting abandoned rail right-of-ways into bike and walking trails. Originally conceived in part as a way of keeping them available for re-use as railroad trails, walkers and bicyclists became a big constituency.
If you want to look at the bike maps I maintain, you can find a lot of them, and even this location.

A bike infrastructure mapping project for NW King and SW Snohomish counties, The Greater Northshore Bike Map links the Seattle and 2 Line Eastside maps, making them all more useful. Printed, it fol...
Oh yeah! I've heard of that abandoned railway thing. that's cool!
ha! i had to re-read your first paragraph a few times. What... why no forest rangers? Oh. that's right. Urban.

aahhggghh now i gotta read it all over again!

@ajaxStardust ah yeah, well, we're a city that's near-rainforest and near to rainforests. people find us ... surprisingly green? even in the winter, when we don't think so.
