As we know and probably love, Shadowrun is a dystopian setting where urban sprawl has taken over much of the old King county in Washington state. I can't remember reading much about nature or parks in most sourcebooks detailing Seattle, although there are supposed to be a lot of nature in NAN-country.

So what has happened to the beautiful area "we" have today? RL seattle is full of parks and nature reserves, and especially wealthy people want access to these also in the future. Certain eccological disasters will have taken it's toll, such as the acidic rain, the mt. rainer erruption, gaetronics plant blowing up - but still there should be some nature left. There might even be more untouched nature in the poorer areas, as urban development would be slower there, while the AAA areas will probably only have golf courses, preserved reserves with a high degree of human intervention etc.

Ok maybe all I'm really interested in is, how far do nature shamans need to go to obtain Reagents in Seattle? Is a common park area enough to get a little, or do they need to go to the larger reserves or even into the Salish-Sidhe council lands?

Also, would it be different if the setting is 2042 instead of 2075?
