Big Creek — Friday, Nov. 26, 2021

Olympic Peninsula > Hood Canal

We chose to #optoutside on the only good weather date and location in western Washington for this Thanksgiving weekend. Clockwise route up to the overlook.  This route will give you 8 ish miles with about 1,800 feet gain.  The first section (1.5 mile) is the steepest of the entire route, so when you get to the connector for the loop, you still have some elevation gain, but the steepest part is behind you.

This is a "go-to" hike for me when I want a quick, easy day on the trail.  It is beautiful, clean, peaceful and always different.
