Tibbits Park and Ride - the outside one next to the new skate park, at 8:30am. From here, we will carpool to the trailhead. If you have a Discover Pass, bring it along.
This is a lesser used loop starting at the southern end o the Tiger Mountain Trail, looping back along the South Tiger Traverse trail. It is not a very rocky trail, so if you would like to wear trail-runners feel free.
After our hike, we will head over to the Rogue Brewery in Issaquah for a snack and/or a beer. As always, it is a good idea to bring a change of shoes/shirt so that you will not offend anyone with your after work-out glow :-)
