The Seattle Great Wheel, on Pier 57, is one of the largest of its kind in North America and gondolas are fully enclosed for rain-or-shine rides.
The views from Seattle’s 175-foot-high Ferris wheel more than compensate for its corniness. From the top you’ll enjoy a grand panorama of the city, the Pacific Ocean and—if you’re lucky—the Olympic Mountains

Poo Poo Point is a small knoll on a shoulder of West Tiger Mountain. The folksy name is a reference to the steam whistle sounds heard throughout the Tigers in the early days of logging.
More recently, around the 1970s, the area around Poo Poo Point was logged by its then owners, Weyerhaeuser Corporation.
The result is a large clear area used now as a launching pad by paragliders who generally backpack their lightweight gear up the Chirico Trail.
