I hadn't thought about it when you were posting about it as it happened, but it sort of breaks my head that you did it counter-clockwise, as I can only conceive of it clockwise for reasons I can't pin down at all. Weird! Probably just personal habits of travel.
Did you discover any neighbourhoods you were previously entirely unaware of? When I was driving 405 a lot, I was surprised by the very (intentionally) isolated extremely posh neighbourhoods between it and the lake, just north of like the Renton Fry's and such, which were, at least at the time, barely connected with the surrounding road networks. I imagine there are a lot of other rich-people enclaves?
Anywhere you intend to go back to? Having gotten lost and/or deliberately exploring both on foot and in cars a few times by the old rail stuff, I feel like there's probably whole worlds there that one can't see without spending a lot of time there. I guess as Seattle ~real estate~ becomes infinitely valuable, though, a lot of that old expanse of wasteland will probably be redeveloped and disappear entirely?
