Chimacum Ridge: A Forest at the Heart of Our Community
Rising between Center and Beaver Valleys in East Jefferson County, Chimacum Ridge is an 917-acre forested landmark visible from Finnriver. Nineteen headwater tributaries flow from the ridge into the mainstem and east fork of Chimacum Creek — home to one of the most successful community-based salmon recovery efforts in our region. The ridge stands prominently in the heart of the Chimacum watershed, two miles from Finnriver and surrounded by 2,000 acres of Jefferson Land Trust protected farms, forests, and salmon habitat. For information about visiting Chimacum Ridge, including directions, details about the trails, and more, please click here.
