Washington will partially reopen outdoor recreation activities May 5, including many previously shuttered state parks, public lands and boat ramps as well as recreational hunting and fishing, Gov. Jay Inslee announced Monday.

State parks, public lands and public water-access points have been closed since late March, in an effort to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus. Recreational fishing seasons were closed a few days later when Inslee first issued his “stay-home” order to slow the virus.
