Are you kidding me? I totally forgot about this article Bob Johansen sent us two years ago:

http://www.washingtonlakes.com/ReadArticle.aspx?id=315

Found it using the previous google search link. I didn't even think to suggest using our search feature. This has gotten way beyond my ability to remember what's in it! :-"

Love the map, BTW. When Aaron has the river editor done I think we'll have to add it.

i think the fishing might be better if Ranier is used instead of PBR, but down in the green river valley PBR is the beer of choice.

The problem with googling the address, 18737 Green Valley Rd SE,, is that it is wrong.
You need to follow the road slightly left, past a driveway, then slightly right.
There's a few houses on right in some trees and then the road to the Metzler parking lot. It angles back pretty sharp.
When you get to the trees and houses, ahead of them is open fields again.
I put a tack where the road actually is.
The address location seems to be just open farm fields.
