City: Illegal mountain bike trails, jumps built in Sehome Arboretum

The city and Western Washington University are once again grappling with illegal trail- and jumps-building in Sehome Hill Arboretum.

A parks crew on Monday, May 9, took out what Randy Godfrey, gardener lead for WWU, described as an "elaborate system of jumps and steep bank turns."

It was in the same area - north of the campus Birnam Wood Apartments and just off the new Allen Street Trail - as the illegal mountain biking trail and jumps pulled out last year.
