FEDERATION OF WESTERN OUTDOOR CLUBS







No. 14
KELLOGG ISLAND IN WASHINGTON STATE


               
Kellogg Island lies at the mouth of the Duwamish River where it flows into Puget Sound through the heart of Seattle's industrial area.  It is a 55 acre grassy island that has survived through the years of the development of shipping terminals and maritime and other industries.  In this improbable location countless waterfowl, land birds including a heron colony, and small mammals live their natural lives undisturbed by the surrounding chaos.  Over the years many threats have been leveled at the island by the Port Commission of Seattle, and by hungry developers.  So far the efforts of the conservation groups around Puget Sound have diverted them.
            
However, new threats have recently arisen and in view of this the Federation of Western Outdoor Clubs urges that Kellogg Island be protected so that it may remain as natural as possible.
