Forks of the Sky State Park

Located along Highway 2, this 1,300-acre state park stretches across the Skykomish River, featuring diverse landscapes with dense forests and river access points.

The incorporation of the Index Town Wall into the park in 2010 expanded recreational opportunities and preserved natural climbing areas for future generations.

The Index Town Wall contains over 500 documented climbing routes, making it a central gathering place for rock climbing enthusiasts from across the region.

The park provides multiple day-use areas including Big Eddy and Raptor Point, each offering specific facilities for picnicking and river access.

A test tunnel boring machine, intended for the English Channel project, created an opening at the base of the Index Town Wall.
