Issaquah Alps > Tiger Mountain
City lights from Poo Poo Point North launch area

Good late afternoon-early evening hike up to West Tiger 2, starting at the Poo Poo Point- Chirico Trailhead. Many thanks to those who have cleared the many blowdowns on the Chirico Trail, One View, and the TMT.  There is still a mess of blowdowns on the TMT just below the Dramatic Erratic below WT2. Trail crews have started on this section, as they have flagged a route through the many trees that are down.

On the way back down from WT2 summit, instead of going back down this way, I continued down the Tiger Mountain Road to the start of Poo Top Trail, and went down Hidden Forest Trail to the TMT. I would of taken the Hidden Forest trail all the way down to the Westside Road, but without knowing the conditions of the trail, along with it getting dark, I took a right on the TMT for 0.1 mile, and took the One View Trail back to the Poo Poo Point Trail which I took back to Poo Point where I got a good view of the city lights, and back down to the Chirico trailhead. 9.4 miles RT with 3478 ft gain
