Olympic National Park







August 6th and 7th


The one truism…we are not spending enough time anywhere! We could have spent a week in Columbia Gorge and a week or two covering the Olympic National Park in Washington. Instead we spent a day and a bit on the North end of the park and were stunned by the scenery at Hurricane Ridge and overjoyed at jumping off the dock at Crescent Lake (see picture of Cal in perfect cannonball form!). We had a wonderful campsite right on the beach in Crescent – an accident because Sequim (pronounced Squim if you are a local – we are not) lost our reservations. A stunning campsite with sunset views through the fog and rain, and hardly anyone around – camping perfection.


We spent a lovely afternoon at this gorgeous lake and treated ourselves to dinner at the Crescent Lake Lodge. Out the next morning to catch the Black Ball Ferry to Victoria, BC Canada!
