4:30 PM at I-90 High Point Exit 20, Issaquah.
WTA lists 6.2 mi. round trip and 1220 ft elev. gain. The club says 4 mi. RT, 1220 ft. elev. gain. The US Forest Service description adds up to 6.8 mi. RT. Whichever is correct, we should be able to complete the hike in daylight by hiking at a moderate pace. (But don't forget your headlamp.) This is a nice hike to two alpine lakes.
