Interpretive sign on the Big Valley Trail

The Big Valley Trail in the Methow Valley is part of the Methow Valley Sport Trails network. It’s part of the Cascades Loop of the Great Washington State Birding Trail.

The 1,000-acre Big Valley parcel was purchased through the efforts of the Methow Institute Foundation, which recently announced that the organization will be disbanding. Big Valley is part of the Methow Wildlife Unit and is managed by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife.
