Kanaskat-Palmer State Park is a 320-acre Washington park along the Green River, with 2 miles of shoreline in a setting shaped by recreation and nearby industry. The park is known for riverside access, picnicking, camping, and 3 miles of hiking and biking trails. The river supports fishing, swimming, birdwatching, and wildlife viewing, while the nearby Green River Gorge is used for expert rafting and kayaking. Horseshoes add a more traditional recreational activity. The surrounding area also reflects a mining past that continues nearby, and Flaming Geyser stands as a local reminder of the geology, coal, and methane that influenced this part of the Green River corridor.
