ODT Eaglemount Fund: Blaze the Way to Discovery Bay

Connecting the Olympic Discovery Trail from Port Townsend to Port Angeles and all the way to the Pacific. The Peninsula Trails Coalition has been working toward this goal since 1988.

It’s time to get it done—and it will happen, but only with your help.

Our get-it-done goal: Blaze the way to Discovery Bay.

We’re calling it the Eaglemount section: a safe, scenic route from the end of the Larry Scott Memorial Trail to Highway 101 at the foot of Discovery Bay. The ODT Eaglemount Fund will allow the Peninsula Trails Coalition to help Jefferson County fill this 6-mile gap in the Olympic Discovery Trail, building a safer off-road connection toward Clallam County for pedestrians, cyclists, horseback riders, and wheelchair users.

In November 2015, Jefferson County commissioners added the ODT Eaglemount section to its six-year transportation plan. The first step is to complete a study by the end of April 2016 that identifies a likely route for the ODT Eaglemount section that takes people off busy and narrow Highway 20. This study is required when applying for construction funds. The PTC has identified likely funding sources for that step—but that’s just the beginning.

This is where YOU play a major role in making the connection.

With your help, the ODT Eaglemount Fund will help pay for important work, including :

  • Route finding.
  • Trail building, including trailheads, kiosks, signage, and other amenities.
  • Long-term maintenance once the connection is complete.

Let’s grow the ODT Eaglemount Fund to an initial goal of $50,000 and move the Olympic Discovery Trail closer to connecting Jefferson and Clallam Counties—at last! Bonus: We’re already $5,000 ahead, thanks to R&B band Freddy Pink and everyone who attended the big benefit concert in October!

Click here now to donate to the ODT Eaglemount Fund.

Together, we WILL make the connection.

THANK YOU for being part of the community that’s making the Olympic Discovery Trail vision a reality.

ODT Closer to Completion: Jefferson County Commissioners Approve Study

On November 16, 2015, the Jefferson County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) took a crucial step toward completing a vital missing link in the Olympic Discovery Trail (ODT).

On Monday afternoon, the BOCC voted unanimously to authorize a feasibility study to establish the route for the ODT/Eaglemount Trail, bypassing State Road 20 (SR20) from Four Corners Road to U.S. Highway 101 at the head of Discovery Bay. The authorization was performed by way of adding the study project to the county’s Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP).

The Olympic Discovery Trail will ultimately be a 126-mile multipurpose nonmotorized trail running from Port Townsend to the Pacific via Discovery Bay Village, Gardiner, Blyn, Sequim, and Port Angeles. About 70 miles of the ODT have been built, and another large section on the north side of Lake Crescent is nearing completion. The six-mile Eaglemount section is the longest part of the trail that has not yet been planned, largely because of daunting topographical challenges.

Jefferson County, the City of Port Townsend, and the Port of Port Townsend have completed the Larry Scott Memorial Trail from Port Townsend to Discovery Road, and the county is about to start construction of the Discovery Bay South Trail from Old Gardiner Road to Snow Creek at the head of the Bay. But the crucial connection between those two trails has remained undeveloped, leaving hikers, cyclists, and others to transport themselves on the highway—putting themselves and motorists at risk.

In September 2015, Sergeant John Ryan, of the Washington State Patrol’s Port Angeles Detachment, wrote to Jefferson County, “My troopers regularly patrol SR20, often observing cars, logging trucks, loaded chip trucks, motorhomes, trucks with trailers, etc., trying to navigate SR20 over Eaglemount while dealing with bicyclers and hikers and oncoming traffic. I myself was assigned to Jefferson County from 1999 to 2003 and patrolled SR20 often, so I know firsthand how dangerous it is. For the safety of everyone—both motorists and nonmotorists—we encourage inclusion of a feasibility study of a recreational trail alternative in the county’s TIP.”

The Olympic Discovery Trail shares the Eaglemount section with the federal Pacific Northwest National Scenic Trail (PNNST), the newest addition to the National Scenic Trails network. The PNNST was established in 2009 as a result of legislation sponsored by former Rep. Norm Dicks and Sen. Maria Cantwell. Now in private practice, Dicks has been working with state and federal officials, including Reps. Derek Kilmer and Steve Tharinger, Washington State Department of Transportation, and Washington State Department of Natural Resources, to support Jefferson County in planning and ultimately building the trail.

“PNNST hikers, bicyclists, mobility-impaired persons, bike-touring groups, and motorists will all be safer, healthier, and happier with a trail bypassing SR20,” Dicks said. ”And a completed world-class ODT should be great for the economy.”

Jeff Selby, vice president of the Peninsula Trails Coalition, says the next step is to fund the study. His organization hopes to accomplish that soon, with the goal of completing the study within the next four months so that grant funding to build the first section(s) can be applied for in May 2016.

“The schedule is tight, but now that this crucial first step has been taken by Commissioners Johnson, Kler, and Sullivan, we can move ahead—after working toward this for 25 years,” Selby said. “Everyone should thank the commissioners, the county administrator, and the county’s Public Works Department for what they have done.”

2015 Election: The PTC Polls Local Candidates

 

From the desk of Peninsula Trails Coalition President Jeff Bohman: 

As the Olympic Discovery Trail becomes an increasingly important element of our tourism, recreation, transportation, and personal-health economy, the involvement and leadership from the jurisdictions through which it passes also becomes increasingly important. With that in mind, each election season, the Peninsula Trails Coalition surveys the candidates on a few key questions relating to the trail.

This year, we surveyed all general election candidates in seven jurisdictions. (There is no election this cycle for Jefferson County commissioner.) Many candidates chose not to respond—and we will continue to advocate with them regardless—but those who did respond took consistently supportive positions regarding the trail.

We encourage you to consider these responses as you make your voting decisions. The Peninsula Trails Coalition counts on you to join with us as continuing advocates with all elected officials for their support and assistance in the completion and maintenance of the Olympic Discovery Trail.

President’s Message: Winter 2014

New Year, New Logo! 

We’re thrilled to unveil our first-ever Peninsula Trails Coalition (PTC) logo. While there has always been an Olympic Discovery Trail (ODT) logo, this may well be an even bigger step. It heralds our ongoing commitment to growing the PTC into the visible, effective organization we all need it to be to provide for the completion of the ODT and its enduring protection and maintenance. We hope you like it as much as we do.

We are pleased about the very gratifying results of our Fall Membership Drive. I want to take this occasion to thank all of you members, donors, and volunteers for your continuing support of the ODT and PTC. We hope you consider further support, which will enable us to be well-prepared for what we expect will be a busy 2015 (more about that next time).

Some of you have expressed concerns over the November 2014 Election Day results and what it may mean for continuing progress toward completion of the ODT. I believe we can say with full confidence that the progress yet to be made is too substantial, too important, too visible, and too widely supported to be impeded. We have every reason to expect the same ongoing leadership from both Clallam and Jefferson counties that we have enjoyed for the past 20-plus years. The PTC’s foremost role has always been to be the advocate for keeping leadership focused on the vision. You can count on us to continue doing exactly that.

Stay warm and have fun on the trail!

—Jeff Bohman, President, Peninsula Trails Coalition

ODT in the News: “An Expanding Wonder”

Have you ever wondered, while running, biking, or walking your dog along the Olympic Discovery Trail, how it all came to be? Our friends at the Kitsap Sun dug into the trail’s history, spoke to folks who enjoy the trail for recreation or commuting, PTC president Jeff Bohman and local leaders who work together to add more miles, some of the many volunteers who maintain the trail, and one of the three original founders who came up with this Big Idea in the first place.

You might be surprised to read how challenging it was to convince people that a multiuse trail would bring great things for the communities it travels through!

Its primary goal is to raise money for nonprofits that take care of the Larry Scott Memorial Trail, part of the Olympic Discovery Trail and its easternmost gateway. LDoT’s secondary goal is to get people moving in a safe and fun way while enjoying our beautiful peninsula.
