Badger Mountain Centennial Preserve
- Badger Mountain Centennial Preserve
The Badger Mountain Centennial Preserve, located on the edge of Richland in Washington, provides a spectacular view of the Tri-Cities as well as the Columbia and Yakima rivers. The preserve provides a small piece of nature in a rapidly growing area. Trails are open for hiking. No motorized vehicles are allowed.
A non-profit group, Friends of Badger Mountain [ [http://www.friendsofbadger.org/ Friends of Badger Mountain] ] , worked to procure this shrub-steppe area that has most native vegetation intact and then built a trail to the summit so others can enjoy it. The 2-kilometer trail rises 300 meters above the trail head in Richland.
