Sometimes it’s really worth getting your feet wet, even if the water is really cold. In this case, wading across this stream (and a little hike uphill) gave us the perspective below. Well, that little wading plus a few days hiking. These were taken in Martins Park in the Central Olympic National Park.
I know I’ve posted other images of gray jays before, but this one was pretty insistent that I take its picture.
This was taken from a viewpoint on the road to Hurricane Ridge in Olympic National Park. The city in the distance is Victoria on Vancouver Island. You can see the mill in Port Angeles in the foreground below the cloud bank. The logged area is outside the Park.
These are Big Leaf Maples along the Elwha River in Olympic National Park. I liked the way the sun light glowed off the mossy limbs.
