Hi guys I've done hikes on both poo poo point and rattle snake, are there other hiking trails around here that are a bit less vertical?

Cougar Mountain and Squak are less vertical. Or near Rattlesnake is the John Wayne/Iron Horse trail, completely flat. So is the Issaquah Preston trail.

Some of the best trails around are in the Redmond Watershed Preserve, especially the one called "Trillium Trail" which should have Trilliums showing blooms about now. It's mostl flat with just a few short grades. The best access is a parking area off of Novelty Hill Rd., in the Redmond Risge area. Another, favorite is in Sammamish, Soaring Eagle Park. The parking area is at the end of S Main Dr,. of of 244th Ave NE. It has a wide, mostly flat trail going all the way to Trossachs, but with smaller, more narrow and steeper but still easy rails within, total 12 miles of trail. You should easily find maps and photos by using Google.
