Revision as of 18:38, 23 March 2024
Sun 17 Mar 2024 in Seattle: 47.6140593, -122.6268826 geohashing.info google osm bing/os kml crox |
Location
Entrance to a Lowe's parking lot in East Bremerton.
Roughly a mile by road from 2017-07-29.
Participants
Plans
Light rail to downtown Seattle, ferry to Bremerton, bus to Lowe's.
Biggest schedule constraint is the ferry. On Sundays, the fast ferry I used on my previous East Bremerton expedition doesn't run, leaving Bremerton served by only a single Washington State Ferries vessel. That takes an hour each way, plus around 20 minutes to unload/load at each end. So I need to be in Bremerton for about 3 hours while the ferry makes a round trip back to Seattle. Normally I wouldn't be up for so much travel or total time, but this weekend has the warmest weather in 5 months and scenic ferry rides barely count anyway.
Route 217 is perfect for this, and coincidentally the only Kitsap Transit bus route that operates on Sundays. That stops running around 16:00, and I'd like to be home by evening anyway, so my ferry options are:
- Leave Seattle 10:00, leave Bremerton 13:30. Lunch following geohash.
- Leave Seattle 12:20, leave Bremerton 16:15. Lunch from ferry galley.
The later trip aligns better with the warmest part of the day, and allows for a leisurely morning. A hike through the Illahee Forest Preserve, right behind Lowe's, sounds like a nice way to spend the extra time.
Expedition
- Shouldn't be hard to find the one bus in town now. -- Coyotebush (talk) @47.5627,-122.6252 13:33, 17 March 2024 (PDT)
- Going to have a tight connection to the return ferry -- Coyotebush (talk) @47.6209,-122.6291 15:38, 17 March 2024 (PDT)
- Luckily the bus schedule is generous - caught up to the boarding line just as it reached the boat -- Coyotebush (talk) @47.5612,-122.6235 16:13, 17 March 2024 (PDT)
