Dosewallips State Park - Steam Donkey Trail — Monday, Apr. 4, 2011

Olympic Peninsula > Hood Canal

We parked at the Dosewallips State Park for the night last weekend. Compared to parking on forest service land it was not cheap, $21 for a site with no services. But it was clean and easy. Pick a site away form the road as it can be noisy. There is a good place for breakfast called the Half-Way Cafe just north of the park. The Dosewallips Steam Donkey trail is nice enough. It winds up and down through 2nd growth woods. A relic or two of the logging days still poke up hear and there. The trail is in good condition and there are plenty of benches for enjoying the peace and quiet.
