Continuing our (unplanned) centennial tour of the national parks, we visited Olympic National Park over the holiday weekend. We didn’t have time to do a lot of long hikes, but we got to see several of the highlights. I think our favorite drive was to Hurricane Ridge, and hiking to the top of Hurricane Hill was even better, with an awesome 360 degree view of the park and surroundings. We even got to get pretty close to a couple of mountain goats and their kids. We also spent some time around Lake Crescent, the Hoh Rain Forest and the beaches on the Pacific coast. All in all, a great way to spend the weekend and another trouble-free trip in RC!
