Sammamish River Trail 8/13/2020

This is another one where it is probably more of a walk than of a hike but I did go 9.3 miles today and there was a very sharp hill exactly in the middle. Here is the elevation profile:

Polygraph Test?

The numbers above represent meters for elevation and kilometers for distance.

Anyway, I get sick of driving around during the week as traffic is (depressingly) getting back to normal, which means obnoxious. So I drove to the Bothell Landing park and walked east from there. My goal was to make it to the Tolt Pipeline Trail and go up Heart Attack Hill, get to the top and turn around and go back.

And that is just what I did.

Great weather, lots of people around but we all had masks and used them when getting close to someone else, but most of the way it is quite wide open and easy to stay away from other people. Plenty of runners and cyclists, as well as people like me who just like to go on long walks.
