Christine Gregoire on Environment

Democratic WA Governor


One step closer to creating Wild Sky Wilderness Area

The U.S. Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee voted to create the Wild Sky Wilderness Area. As an avid hiker and lover of the outdoors, I could not be more pleased by today's news that we are one step closer to protecting over 100,000 acres of wilderness in Snohomish County.

The tireless efforts may lead to the first wilderness preservation action in Washington state in decades, and it's my sincere hope that future generations will be able to experience this region as it exists today.
