"This virtual cache is part of the larger IssaQuest Sustainability GeoTour. Sasquatch visits the stores, restaurants, and entertainment on Front Street regularly, and especially loves groovin’ to Thursday night blues at the Historic Shell Station in the summer. The Historic Shell Station was first built as a warehouse and grocery store in 1902 but is now a historical site in Issaquah. This small historic gas station reminds us of the City's efforts to transition its own fleet to electric vehicles while also providing access to charging infrastructure across the community."
