Two alternatives for the trail design were developed and presented to the PLG and to <br />the public. After feedback from this process and further collaboration, Alternative 2, "The Playful Loop <br />Concept," was chosen as the preferred alternative. This plan option was further refined to incorporate <br />input received through PLG meetings, public meetings, and comments from other stakeholders. <br />The final plan graphic is shown on the fold -out maps in this section. <br />The master plan trail system evenly disperses trail routes between the towns of Roslyn, Cle Elum and <br />Ronald to provide exceptional access and recreation opportunity for all three communities. There are <br />three separate trail types to fit the needs of hiking, mountain biking, equestrian, and winter uses. The <br />trails will connect the towns to the Main Ridge Road and beyond into the Teanaway Community Forest. <br />This organized trail system will enable multiple recreation uses to coincide together and offer both local <br />and visiting users active and passive ways to enjoy this beautiful forest. Breathtaking views from the <br />trails include Mt. Adams, Mt. Rainier and into the Teanaway. Views of the Stuart Range from Cle Elum <br />Ridge are nothing short of spectacular and well worth the climb. <br />Towns to Teanaway Corridor Master Plan p 110 of 26 <br />Prepared for: Economic Development Group of Kittitas Co. & Kittitas Co.
