Bear Gulch Fire – Day 4

Bear Gulch Fire – Day 4 -1

This is the last post of the North Fork Skokomish area of the Olympic National Park near Staircase. Regular readers may recognize the area from many of my previous posts and remember that I have hiked this favorite area dozens of times. I am sharing these now because everything they show has been burnt in the Bear Gulch fire in the last week or two. I remain in mourning.

N Fork Skokomish at Camp Pleasant

N Fork Skokomish at Camp Pleasant

At 6.7 miles (10.8 km) on the N Fork Skokomish trail in the Olympic National Park is Camp Pleasant, one of my favorite camping spots. It isn’t too large a space, but there are several campsites spread along the river bank. I have spent several 4th of July evenings camped there to avoid the noise of the celebrations. It’s just a beautiful, peaceful locations.
