Lake Washington sunken forests information


Sunken forests highlighted in yellow in Lake Washington off Kirkland (top) and Mercer Island (bottom)

The Lake Washington sunken forests were both a part of the scientific discovery of a major fault line under Seattle, Washington, and part of a timber piracy case in the late 20th century. In a precedent-setting case, the Washington State Supreme Court decided that ancient drowned forests are state property and not eligible for salvage.
