- Tolt Pipeline Trail (wta.org)
The Tolt pipeline provides water to the City of Seattle and runs from the Tolt Reservoir in the Cascades to the Lake Forest Park Reservoir. The pipeline passes though Seattle’s northern Eastside suburbs, and the pipeline’s 100-foot-wide right-of-way has been converted in part to a non-paved, multi-use trail for equestrians, dog walkers, mountain bikers, joggers, and hikers. The trail runs 12 miles from Duvall to Bothell.

486958 Arrokoth (provisional designation 2014 MU69; formerly nicknamed Ultima Thule) is a small, icy Kuiper belt object orbiting the Sun beyond Neptune and Pluto. It became the farthest object in the Solar System visited by a spacecraft when the NASA space probe New Horizons flew past it on 1 January 2019. Arrokoth was discovered on 26 June 2014 by astronomer Marc Buie and the New Horizons Search Team, who had been using the Hubble Space Telescope to find Kuiper belt objects that New Horizons could visit.
