Meet at Tibbet P&R 7am, 1464 Newport Way NW, Issaquah. Trail Parking is limited so we will carpool from the P&R. 

We will hike to Otter Falls. We will be able to see 500 ft of the 1200 ft fall and have lunch there before heading back. Currently there is a road washout so we will need to park with half-mile road walk to the trailhead. Northwest Forest Pass required.
