Default Olympic Forest

Took my first trip into the Olympic forest today and it is beautiful. Wasn't expecting to run into snow so fast though.

Looks like you had a good trip!

Ran up to Tonga Ridge this weekend and ran into a bit of snow as well.

I'm just glad to see someone posting again in the NW section - it's been almost 3 weeks!!!

Snow is in the air - we're due for a snow run.

I was heading to this Lat/Lon (47°55'24.0"N 123°02'14.0"W) and was using my GPS so I'm not 100%
