Pooch Place Letterbox at Willow Creek
Beaverton, Oregon

Established March 26, 2001 by Der Mad Stamper

DIRECTIONS:

Willow Creek Nature Park is in northern Beaverton, about 3/4 mile southeast of Bronson Creek Park. Take NW Cornell Road to SW 173rd Avenue. Go south on 173rd about a half mile until you see tiny Apollo Ridge Park on your right. On the opposite side of the street, a sign marks the trailhead for the "Winthrop Bike Path at Willow Creek Nature Park". This path leads to a series of boardwalks that wind eastward, past a soccer field, to follow Willow Creek all the way to 158th Avenue. Expect to see evidence of a resident beaver, as well as an assortment of songbirds, waterfoul, and other woodland creatures along the way.
