A Walk Through Olympic National Park

Today's post is the third and final installment from our barely pre-Quarantine trip to Seattle and Long Beach.  On our way back home, we drove up to Olympic National Park for a quiet hike and picture-taking, which we absolutely love to do!  I've been wanting to visit the park for a long while, but it's a bit too remote for a simple day trip.  Sean found an area that would give us a scenic drive and hiking opportunities within our limited timeframe.  The Staircase Area was quite beautiful and a lovely respite from our time in the city, as we contemplated what life was going to be like with the impending lockdown.

This is another photo diary-type layout.  I didn't have the heart to collage any of these photos because the forest is so beautiful, so it is quite photo-heavy.  I'm also really excited to share more of my "texture photos" with you, which are some of my favorites to take!  Enjoy!

This tree is a Western Red Cedar (Thuja Plicata) with a diameter of 14 feet.

I'm so obsessed with trees.  I'm just always excited to take photos of them.
