Hurricane Ridge, Olympic National Park, Washington
mouchequilouche:
Best time everrrrr: soaking in the Olympic Hot Springs during 3days. Watertemperature = 41°, rainy weather….hmmaaawww! :D
That place is amazing, trailhead is closed and I needed to ignore the very decieving and misleading advice from the park ranger to get there (those guys are generally to be avoided….behaving like police officers and NOT REALLY what you should rely on…grrrr *frustrated*) — out in the forest basically alone for the days, soaking in a hot tub in the rain….AMAZING!! :)
Met a trail maintenance crew, very nice campfire session with excellent food - thanks guys, you were amazing! :D
And finally: first BEAR meeting on my travel, safe distance. big guy. Black bear. Nice! :)
It was awesome to meet you, Oli! Thanks for the company! Glad I’ll be able to track your adventures via photos!
