We're walking part of the Seattle Olmsted 70, Section 12, route but diverging from Perkins Lane to walk Seattle Stairway Walks #13, South Magnolia (Jaramillos, 2013). Yes to big views from both the shore and the heights. About 405 stairs up and we explore the ridges on either side of Pleasant Valley. Highest point is a splendid water tower, elevation 345ft.
