Good conditioning hike with a steady grade of 10-12% most of the way.  We'll stop for a short break at the bridge in Many Creeks Valley, which is about halfway to the top.  We will take another break at the top to check out both the north and south viewpoints (and paraglider launch sites) before heading back down the way we came. 

We will meet at 8am at the trailhead behind Issaquah High School; we'll start hiking no later than 815am.   Directions are in the Mountaineers trail description.   If you navigate to the Issaquah Sportsmen's Club, you will get to the right place.   No Discovery or NW Forest Pass required.
