This is 5 miles round trip with only 900' of elevation gain. A beautiful, close in hike in the "Issaquah Alps". You will experience the mountain as an odd blend of wilcerness and civilization. A microwave radio relay tower, a blockhouse, old logging roads, the remains of a communication structure, cables and the chimney of a family home that belonged to the Bullitt family are a few of the things you may find on these trails. The main views are from the Central Peak.
Directions: Drive east on I-90 exiting at exit 15 then turning right onto state rt 900. Drive to a small parking area at the road gate and the trailhead is on the lert. It is near milepost 19, just north of the old Sunset Quarry.
