Where did the location of our stretch of roadway wind up? I read the thread and it looks like it started out in one place but then moved to a different place because Brown Bear already had the original place.
Also, did a permanent sign ever get installed by the state, and where is it?

Thanks, I'll take your reply to mean that the site never got moved. But I don't see anything in the first post about the sign location. I guess you can tell me to read the post again because I must have missed it. But if I did miss it, can you please help me find it? I guess I must be blind...

The sign is mounted on the right shoulder on the North bound lanes of I-5 just after you cross the Puyallup river bridge. (Mile post 135.5)

80 people showed up for the river cleanup and I have a hard time getting 5 to show up for a program that many wanted to be involved in. If things don't pick up soon (no pun) I'm going to drop the program.
Volunteers make clean-up effort
on Puyallup River successful OLYMPIA - Enforcement officers with the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) credit the success of a recent clean-up effort on the Puyallup River to anglers, community members and local businesses who volunteered for the event.
More than a ton of garbage and debris was removed from the lower portion of the Puyallup River during a work party sponsored Oct. 3 by Sportsmen for the Preservation of our Rivers and Streams - a local angler organization. The group's achievement went beyond expectations, said WDFW's Sgt. Ted Jackson, who participated in the event.
"It's no secret that the Puyallup and other rivers have suffered this year with garbage and gear left behind by some anglers fishing these waters," Jackson said. "During the clean-up, volunteers found plenty of other garbage as well. It's encouraging when folks step forward and do an outstanding job to clean up these areas, which are so important to the health of our fish and wildlife."
Rosendo Guerrero, a longtime angler and founder of the new preservation group, organized the work party, recruiting approximately 80 volunteers to assist in the clean-up. Volunteers included local anglers, People for Puget Sound, a City of Puyallup work crew, a City of Puyallup council member, WDFW enforcement officers and community members.

If anyone from the Vancouver/SW Wa area wants to ride up with me or vice-versa, send me a PM. I have room for up to 3 others.
I will probably be leaving about 7'ish from the Orchards area of Vancouver and was thinking about getting a bite to eat afterwards, although my travel plans are somewhat negotiable.
