Wednesday, 3 meetings in the morning :( Couldn't get back into work mode, especially my test failed.
Took off ~1:45pm, and took the bus to Issaquah to hike Tiger.
However, I forgot my tekking pole :(
On the trail, found some Boletes (but most are too wet), and quite a few mushroom like in this photo.
They are jelly like.
The beginning of the trail (off Sunset Blvd) is steep and very noisy (just above I-90).
Then, it is flat (Adventure Trail), under powerlines.
Then onto the Section Line trail. This is steep.
About 3.3 miles and 2700' to West Tiger 3.
Here is the view of Tiger 2 from Tiger 3.
I continued down and up to Tiger 2. The power station is fully fenced in. There's a rough narrow track around it. A nice bench under the station. Some guy was chilling there. I returned to Tiger 3, and ate my early dinner there. Too early for sunset, will come back for it next time. It is a bit dark later on my back, but I didn't use my headlamp. Got side tracked a couple of times, both going up and down. A GPS map is useful, because there're too many trails here.
Back to the bus station ~6:45. The bus at 7:08 is 10 min late. Rush hour? Got home ~8pm.
