Olympic - Beaches & Rain Forest

Rialto Beach - beach was rocky but beautiful with the rock formations & driftwood.  Lots of photo ops.  There are other beaches but when we visited, they were closed because of covid.






 Hoh Rainforest - Spruce Nature Trail & Hall of Mosses trail.  It's the only temperate rain forest in the US.  Very unique trees & mosses.





These trees were all in a row coming off of a nurse log that had fallen.




 Ruby Beach - another beautiful beach







Final stats from the trip:
16 days
3404 miles driving
4930 miles flying
228,487 steps - over 100 miles walking/hiking
2085 pictures
33 named waterfalls & probably 30-40 unnamed ones

You could just barely see Canada across the water.

 Marymere Falls
 Salmon Cascade.  Sometimes you can see salmon jumping up but not while we were there.
