Olympic National Park

I’ve been to Olympic National Park twice, once in the summer of 2004 and once in the early fall of 2008. I had plenty of sunny weather on the first visit and plenty of rain in the rain forests on the second, followed by sunny weather on Hurricane Ridge.

Galleries

	Roosevelt Elk In the Hoh Rain Forest, you can get a unique glimpse of elk amidst the greenery of the moss and giant trees.		Black-tailed Deer Blacktails can be seen throughout the park but Hurricane Ridge is my favorite. The deer in the park are not hunted and will often pass close by on the trails.
	Olympic Marmots Not only are Olympic marmots the only marmots in the Olympics, they exist no where else in the world.		Other Wildlife A few of the other creatures that live on the Olympic peninsula.
	Scenery Though one park, the scenery changes from snow-capped mountains to glacier-carved lakes to temperate rain forests to ocean beaches.
