Wagoo with the Crew? RSS

When we started ET one of our main goals was to connect and inspire friends, family and strangers to get out and enjoy the sanctity of the forest. We believe in a future where our communities can work together to care for our forested parks and natural areas. It's been precisely one year since we decided to go rogue and plant 57 EvergreenTreez along the banks of the Cedar River. Since last May we've returned to the river a handful of times to continue the restoration project with Forterra NW. We've made new friends along the way and seen the...

After the snowiest February in Seattle history we were expecting the ground to be a little frozen when we went to dig our shovels in at Ron Regis park for the first time this year. What we didn't foresee was a couple inches of snow still on the ground when we got to the Cedar River. It was a cold, beautiful morning and the volunteer turnout with Forterra NW was incredible. This was ET's third event at Ron Regis so far and each time the group has gotten a little bigger. Cold temperatures didn't discourage anyone. This time there were...

When JP Solberg founded the company he made it his mission to avoid the status quo and design rider driven decks. Their Greats UnInc is an asymetrical twin that has always been notoriously sound as a freestyle deck. In 2019 the Greats took on a major re-design. It still features the asymmetrical sidecut and...

Sometimes the stars just simply align. After a tumultuous January filled with warm temperatures, lack of snowfall and myriad life obligations it's safe to say that the ET crew was in dire need of a trip to the forest. We'd kept our eyes on the forecast and were hopeful for at least a little new snow as we packed our bags for Bellingham and Mt. Weird. The trip started with calm winds and broken clouds. We made our obligatory stop off Chuckanut Drive to climb some treez and play a game of skate at Larrabee State Park. The overwhelming feeling...

Since our first planting party at the Cedar River we spent the summer removing invasive species (mostly blackberry) from around the young treez. We carried homer buckets full of river water back into the forest to keep them watered. Out of the 57 we planted it's safe to say at least 50 will survive and thrive! Thinking about climbing them in 20 years gives me goosebumps. The riparian forest in Renton holds a special place in our hearts and restoring that river will help protect several keynote species including salmon in the years to come. Our efforts at Ron Regis...
