Hoh River Trail to Blue Glacier — Monday, May. 27, 2019

Olympic Peninsula > Pacific Coast

Some snow fields to cross on the trail between Glacier Meadows campsites and the Lateral Moraine viewing point.  Many Avalanche Lillies in bloom above tree line.  Entire trail is in good condition, except there are some downed trees on trail between Elk Lake and Glacier Meadows.  Just a few bugs encountered during the entire 5 day hike.  The most noticeable wildlife are the birds, singing their songs from sunup to sundown.  Lots of hikers until 5 mile camp, then hardly saw anyone. You won't see Mt Olympus until the last few steps up to the top of the lateral moraine - pretty exciting!  A beautiful hike!
