Layered Ocean View

Layered Ocean View

I was attracted to the clouds along the horizon, but the different layers of patterns in the sand made a very interesting foreground. Many horizontal layers … This is a view from Kalaloch on the beach section of the Olympic National Park.

Graves Creek Tributary

Graves Creek Tributary

I couldn’t find a name for this tributary of Graves Creek … which is itself a tributary of the East Fork Quinault River. I’m sure if I got a detail map it would show a name, but I don’t have anything with more detail than a typical hiking map. It’s a nice stream, though.

Mossy Rocks

Mossy Rocks

I enjoyed finding the moss covered rocks lined up in the Graves Creek Campground (Olympic National Park). I know they must get dried out in the summer … but they sure are healthy in spring.

Beach Walk

Beach Walk

This is a view of the beach just north of Kalaloch. I really liked the misty headlands in the background, and the beach walkers made it more interesting.

Early Spring in the Rain Forest

Early Spring – Quinault Rain Forest

These are both taken in the rain forest up the East Fork of the Quinault River valley at Graves Creek Campground in Olympic National Park. I am always impressed with the way the trees get covered with moss.
