Issaquah Transit Center

We will meet at the Issaquah Transit Center, 1050 17th Ave, at 7:30 am. First level, park at the west side (near parking space 12.) We'll aim to hit the road by 7:45 am.

 

This hike is part of the winter conditioning series offered by the Foothill branch.

We'll go at a moderate pace: we will aim to keep moving (with reasonable breaks for snacks and views), but nobody will be left behind. The trail is smoother and less steep initially, but on the rockier, steeper switchbacks our pace will probably slow down.  Please bring microspikes. Poles recommended. Keep an eye on the weather forecast and please bring appropriate layers or rain gear.

Drivers to the trailhead will need a Discovery Pass.
