Lower Green River
About
Lower Green River is a 49-acre park in Washington, sitting on city land within the 104th Ave SE Park unit about a mile from Auburn. Its small size and close-in location make it an easy stop for anyone already in town. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Kent put July and August highs around 78°F, with only about four or five wet days a month compared with 18 or 19 in midwinter. Several other outings lie within a short drive. Les Gove Park, a climbing area, is about 1.5 miles away, and Big Soos Creek offers canoeing roughly 3.6 miles out. Hikers can head to the Lake Fenwick Trail, and boulderers to Kenticle Boulder, both about 4.6 miles from the park.
