2024.3.5. Tiger 2 + 3

3/5, Tuesday. Went to visit Jakob again, and hiked to Tiger 3 and then Tiger 2.

I was surprised that the snow level is so low. At ~1000', it was all snow. I didn't bring any traction device or gaitors. So, slow going, in order not to slip. Other hikers I saw today are half half. Some are like me: ill prepared.

Snow covered the ugly stumps on the summits. Looked much prettier. But it was cloudy today, so no view of distant mountains: no Rainier nor Olympics. Clear view of downtown Bellevue and Seattle, Lake Washington.
