Event comments

At Frenchman's bar walkers will be able to see the Columbia River with lots of wildlife especially birds this time of year. You will then walk on a paved bike path to Vancouver Lake passing farms and wildlife areas. You will also view Vancouver Lake and the many birds there. 5 km will turn back around before reaching Vancouver Lake. Enjoy REI's initiative of opting out Black Friday Shopping and get outside to enjoy the environment. This is a Traveling Group walk with a long registration period from 9:00 to 11:00 am. Those that come early and want to take their own time period will be given a map and instructions so they can go at any time they would like. The 5 km Group and 10 km Group will leave at 10:00 am. Event and Distance books will be stamped at the start of the walk. Bring your camera. This is a free parking day this year.
