The rules
King County code allows Class 1 and 2 e-bikes only on regional trails and paved park pathways, and Duthie Hill is a singletrack mountain bike park, so e-bikes are not allowed. Class 3 is barred from all county park trails.
What the official source says:
A person may operate a micromobility device as defined in section 7.01.010.BB and a Class 1 or Class 2 electric-assisted bicycle only on regional trails and paved pathways within park areas unless prohibited by state or federal law.
