Description: Poo Poo Point is a well-known hiking destination located on the western slopes of Tiger Mountain in Issaquah, Washington. The point offers stunning views of the surrounding area, including Lake Sammamish and the city of Issaquah. It is particularly popular among paragliders, who use the area as a launching point for their flights. The hike to Poo Poo Point can be accessed via the Chirico Trail, which is a steep but rewarding trek, or the longer Poo Poo Point Trail, which provides a more gradual ascent. The name "Poo Poo Point" is said to derive from the sound of the steam whistles that loggers used in the early 20th century to signal that logs were ready to be transported. Today, it's a favorite spot for outdoor enthusiasts, offering both the thrill of paragliding and the satisfaction of a scenic hike.
