This is one of the falls on the Olympic Waterfall Trail. It is a very short 1/4 mile fairly even walk to the viewpoint. I just LOVED this wild curved log that apparently has been at the bottom for almost a year now.

Marymere Falls
This is only the very bottom of the falls going into the stream. I forgot how little of the falls you can see from the bottom. Since I tore my knee out, just the walk to the falls was all she wrote. So I took a picture of the trailing end. You’ll just have to go see it for yourself! It’s very impressive-especially during the spring run off.
Faraway Friday-Milford Sound
It was soooooooo rainy that we couldn’t even enter the sound for two hours. When we did it seemed that ALL the walls were waterfalls of varying sizes. It was beautiful but we could only see the first layer of the imposing mountains…
I can only imagine what a site it must be.
All about scale…
Milford Sound has soaring mountains and waterfalls (these are just foothills). But look to the bottom right and see the 65ft boat looking like a little ant.
Can you find the 50ft ship on the left?
Sol Duc Beauty
The Sol Duc River splits into these three tails making the falls. This is just the very top of the falls. It’s one of my favorite falls in the area.
The jump of its life…
This salmon is climbing the ladder of rapids at the Solduc river. I could have sat there all day watching this determined group.
SolDuc Falls
This is a BEAUTIFUL spot to hike with several loops of different lengths. Most with good boardwalks or paths. It a little over an hours drive from Sequim. If you stay at the lodge there you can g in the thermal pools. I’ve never been but it looked mighty inviting after our hikes.
