Nice, close to the city.

We started from the parking lot at Red Creek, wandered through a few to get to the falls and ventured to North Fork falls too.  The flowers weren't varied and some berries are just starting to come up.  North Fork is fairly scant compared to when I saw it in the fall.  Coal Creek was no disappointment.  A little gain in places to get the heart pumping, but nothing to make it miserable even for someone out of shape like me.  Logged approximately 5 miles and ventured to downtown Issaquah for lunch and chocolates.  Great day.

Put together this little eight mile loop on Cougar Mountain.  All the trails have dried out in the warm weather and there are no major obstacles to be found.  Just a couple of blowdowns to hop over.
