Tipsheets related to the Ted Bundy Investigation: Information from the King County Sheriff’s Archives, Part One.

Due to the sheer mass of information I am dividing these documents into two separate articles.

Ted Bundy’s Issaquah Dump Site, May 2025.

As of now, I have been to Seattle three times: In April 2022, April 2024, and May 2025… During my first trip I couldn’t find the Issaquah Dump Site and was driving around the same two mile radius for almost two hours with absolutely no luck. During my second trip in April 2024, I had a friend help walk me through exactly where to park and how to navigate to the actual site (his name is Cole Kaiser, and he is awesome and deserves another shout out). Like with Taylor Mountain this time around I decided to explore ALL of it, and to my surprise learned it was quite a bit bigger than I previously thought.

Ted Bundy’s Taylor Mountain Dump Site, May 2025.

I needed to take a break from uploading the documents from the King County Sheriff’s Department and decided to post some pictures from my recent Seattle trip. Even before I checked in to my Air BnB, the first thing I did after leaving the Sea-Tac Airport was drive straight to Taylor Mountain, because I knew my time in Washington was limited and I wanted to make the most of it. When I went in 2022 and 2024 I didn’t venture in very far, and just took my pictures and left. This time I made sure to wear appropriate footwear and walked through the entire area, and I learned that it was much larger than I previously thought, and even had a lake and separate walking path.
