Poo Poo Point
No, I'm not being childish. That's really the name!
Last night after work it was a beautiful evening, I had some excessive energy that needed burning off. I was thinking about going for a run, but then I remembered that I've been wanting to find this trail to Poo Poo Point ever since I'd heard about it (which was several weeks ago when a bunch of us went hiking up Tiger Mountain on West Trail #3). It was a bit tricky to find, but after asking a local, I discovered the trailhead just off Front Street by the Issaquah High School. Four-and-a-half miles later and 1,800 feet higher, I stood in a small clearing on a hilltop, watching paragliders launch themselves into space. I didn't know they would be up there. It looked extremely fun.

I think that must be the most amazing feeling--being weightless and above the world for a few minutes of your life. But I always wanted to hangglide; I wonder how paragliding's different.
