In August 2011 Sandy (finally) used her RV and joined Mike's family (in a rented RV) for a trip north through Oregon, Washington, Idaho to Canada. Our initial goal was to spend time at Lake Louise and Banff, but we never got that far and saw southern British Columbia and the Olympic Peninsula in Washington instead. A wonderful trip!

Rhododendron Flats
We pulled off Hwy 3 in Manning Park in the heart of the Cascade Mountains at Rhododendron Flats. We took a long walk through tall trees and gorgeous ferns and flowers. After we crossed the bridge, the trail narrowed so it was one a foot or so wide through tall grasses and bushes. We ended our hike up a rocky mountain stream following a “path” that led up to a wonderful waterfall. Across the falls was the remains of an old mine and cabin. It was particularly special because it seemed we were one of the few to have discovered it.
