Repeat performance to hike Little Saint Helens Thursday, July 15th
Little Saint Helens (use your imagination why this hike got its name) is a delightful hike of 6.5 miles and 1200 feet elevation gain to get to glorious view of Mt Rainer and the surrounding Cascades. Meeting time dependent upon whether you meet at the trail head or Issaquah Highlands Park & Ride.
We’ll plan to meet at the trail head at 9:00 am. Alternatively we can meet at the Issaquah Highlands at 8:00 am. Please let trip leader know of your plans.
Trailhead directions: Take I-90 east to exit 47, turn right, then right on Forest Road 55. Turn left on Forest Road 5510, zigzagging up the mountain, avoiding potholes to the trailhead parking lot. You can do this in any vehicle but you will have to drive slowly. It will be beautiful this Thursday and we will get the full impact of the 360 degree view! We can stop after the hike in the North Bend area for refreshments.
