Seattle
Hanami at UW
Missing the blue tarp, but otherwise, had Hanami covered during the cherry blossoms.
Capitol Hill Stair Walk: The Big Ones!
The longest steps in the city travel between Capitol Hill and Eastlake. It’s a great walk.
Stair Walk 15: Downtown Seattle
Saving this walk for a day of chores, it was more of an architectural tour than a stair walk. Still, the hills are steep and I learned a few new things.
Stairwalk 5: Northgate
I had great hope for this walk, but it was mostly dreary, soggy, and sullen.
One big set of stairs, and a winding walk along the bluffs above Lake Washington’s northern end. Not much to say.
Walking to Get Over a Dead Cat: Mt. Baker
Such a gloomy day! So we stay close to home and finally do the “official” Mt. Baker Stairway Walk.
Stairway Walk 12: Northwest Queen Anne
Rising steeply from Interbay, the Southwest corner of Queen Anne has lots of stairs, ass-busting steep streets, and a one very sweet, though sad, playground.
Stairs to Golden Gardens
Mostly a walk along one of Seattle’s most popular beaches, the Stairwalk No 3: Golden Gardens, was a perfect walk to talk and catch up with family.
Stairways in Magnolia
After a week off due to snow, rain and too much smutty reading, it was nice to get back out for another stairway walk to another neighborhood I have rarely been too, Outer Mongolia. No, I mean, Magnolia.
Two in One Day: Fremont & Ravenna
With one very lucky bus connection, I managed to do both Stairway Walk #1 and #2 today, first visiting Fremont and then heading over to walk up the Ravenna Ravine.
Bundling up, my pal N. and I head to the University to find the stairs and admire architecture & youth.
