I caught 554 on 2nd & Stewart and when I sat down found this ladybug on my pant leg.

Via metro trip planner I had assumed that I could take 554 all the way to downtown Issaquah but when we got to the transit center the driver told me it was the last stop. He said that outside of the morning every other 554 does not go to downtown. I paid my fare and asked for a transfer, sound transit does not give transfers, they use the orca card, I remembered the article I read a while back thinking the card sounded silly.
So I walked to town reaching E Sunset Way and eventually ran into this on the south side of the street just before the i90 on-ramp.

The path ascends to a service road called puget powerline road, I walked on that heading east passing multiple trail heads. Eventually I reached high point trail head. There are maps, bathrooms and parking here.
Now the hiking begins I was set to reach the summit of west tiger #3 and I did but really had to rally myself the last .9 miles. I didn't stay at the summit too long because it got pretty cold. The wind was really blowing and on the way up I could hear trees creek and pop. This was a steep hike to me, on my way back to E sunset I took the around the lake trail.
