OUT for Sustainability's third annual Earth Gay will be restoring a walking and biking trail along the Southeast corner of Lake Union. Anchored by Fairview Ave and stretching along Cheshiahud Loop Trail to Terry Pettus Park (Newton St), this is the start of refurbishing the trail around Lake Union!
