[edit] Untitled

I'm not sure if my little editorial on interesting parks is appropriate here. Feel free to comment or edit.

The Arizona parks system has breakdown of its list by region. We could do the same here. WA Parks & Recreation uses these divisions: Northwest, North Puget Sound, South Puget Sound, Southwest, North Coast, South Coast, North Central, South Central, Northeast, Southeast.

[edit] List of parks for completeness

According to GNIS there are 169 parks in Washington state with "state park" in the name, and given the WA state parks website says there's only 120, it seems there's likely about 49 'former' state parks, although there may well be dupes, overlaps, name changes, other 'false positives', etc. I don't want to just dump them into the article as is, unfiltered, so I'll put the list in HTML in this subpage for people to work from.

[edit] Hanging Gardens State Park

I'm wondering whether this state park may have been renamed to Kanaskat-Palmer State Park. At least there is no Hanging Gardens State Park at the official website. --X-Weinzar (talk) 23:51, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
