Tiger Mountain Cable Line

Tiger Mountain, February 11, 2005

I hiked up the Cable Line Trail to West Tiger 3 this morning. A friend told me it was a good route to train for trail running. I mostly walked it, and still emerged really weak at the top 42 minutes later. Still, that was the fastest I'd ever hiked up 2000 feet! Muttering softly to myself and drooling somewhat, I descended quietly.

I decided to quit writing up Cougar Mountain stuff here, it is just too close to home, and I guess Tiger is too. I am not going to the mountains lately (or for a while), so little will happen in these pages. I'm just getting to know the local hills and trails around Issaquah, Bellevue, Redmond.
