State of Washingtons DNR plans to close 19 recreation areas due to budget cuts, affecting Harry Osborne State Forest near Hamilton. The program, already strained, will face reduced staffing and maintenance, leading to slower storm cleanup, empty bathrooms, and increased litter. Harry Osborne, with past issues, is a top pick for cutbacks, resulting in locked gates, fewer permits, and scaled-back care for facilities. Similar moves hit other sites, leading to full shutdowns and bathroom closures.
