Stan's Overlook ~ 5 miles~ Ele gain 1120

I find myself doing some hikes over again, some more than twice! This would be a second for Stan’s Overlook. I was joined today by my new neighbors Arlene and Clay. Arlene said and I quote “I am happiest when I’m on a mountain” We stopped afterwards for Krispy Kreme donuts and coffee. Yup, we are going to get along just fine! There was even talk about back-packing...um yay!

Someday soon I would actually like to complete the entire trail. Starting from Exit 27, it traverses to Rattlesnake Lake for 10.5 miles. (It would be silly of me not to park a car on the other end) I also think I’ve done most of the hikes in North Bend/Issaquah Alps area (but somehow I keep finding more) I've hardly touched Middle Fork Snoqualmie. That’s been closed since March just past the trailhead for Mailbox Peak. I can’t wait for that to open up.
