Olympic Peninsula
15 or so miles south of Forks we entered the Hoh Olympic Rain Forest. It was just beautiful - - tall trees, acres of ferns, tons of moss and beautiful rivers. After parking our RVs in two camping sites, we all walked around the Hall of Mosses trail and then separated. Sandy, Ian, Tom, Cub and Charlotte took the flatter, shorter Spruce trail along the HoH River while Mike, Angie and Mandy went up HoH River Trail for 8 miles. We saw all sorts of different microclimates ranging from a wide, fast-moving, rocky mountain stream to moss-covered primeval forest. The kids had more fun tossing rocks into and across the river than appreciating nature, but we all had a good time.
