MUSCLE-POWERED PUBLIC LAND USERS BANDING TOGETHER TO WORK FOR RESPONSIBLE LAND STEWARDSHIP AND USE

Welcome to Palisades!

Purpose:
Our primary goal is stewardship of the entire Rimrock/Palisades/Indian Canyon area, including all public lands within the approximate boundaries of Sunset Hwy on the South, Riverside State Park on the North and East, and Airway Heights on the West.

This will include trail planning and maintenance, park advocacy with regard to City Parks issues, involvement with the various agencies assisting in fire management, periodic cleanup activities, and a helpful, watchdog approach to all park users -- i.e. friendly toward non-trashers, non-poachers, non-dealers.

In addition, to assist other user groups in working toward accomplishment of their goals within other areas to enhance muscle-powered use, whether by help with marketing/grant writing/funding or physical help with trail work and building projects.

Finally, to spread the teachings of the "Leave No Trace" Outdoor Ethics program, both within our own area and by reaching out to other user groups to help work toward having clean, sustainable public lands everywhere.

We hope you'll join us.

2008-09-29 - Palisades Forestry Plan Project Moving Along
The effort to develop an ongoing Forestry Plan for Palisades is continuing to develop. Members of Palisades have met twice with Al Hawson of the Spokane County Conservation District. They have walked different areas of the Park to give Al an overview of the conditions now existing in the Park, its trails, usage, and forests. From this he will be able to develop an ongoing management plan. His plan will be developed on what the status of the park is now, what will need to be done to bring it closer to a natural area and forest and how that can be accomplished.
