We will be meeting at the Preston Park and Ride, exit 22 from I-90 at 8:00am.

This is a wonderful loop that is rarely used, and so makes it a pleasant change to the normal Tiger Mountain Trip.  We start off of Tiger Mountain Rd SE on the south side of Tiger and loop around counter-clockwise getting a view of Mirrormont and south Issaquah near the end of the hike.
