Tiger Mountain


After working Saturday morning, then getting a bit frustrated with a server configuration task in the afternoon, I decided late in the day to go hiking, despite the time. Tiger Mountain, in the Central Cascades, is very close. It took me just over two hours to reach Summit #2, which is (by the path I took) almost exactly three miles and a 2381 foot climb to 2757 feet. This photo was taken from the top as the sun began to set. I went from there to the slightly lower Summit #3, then down a direct, steep path only maintained because a power line is buried there. The total trip was just over five miles and I was pretty darn beat at the end, but I'm glad I made it to the top because this sunset was worth it. Posted by Hello
