Nice easy day hike
Lovely hike first along Lake Quinault, into the Rain forest trail leading to the Quinault loop. Cedar bog was dry, but beautiful nonetheless. Best though was the dense forest approaching Gatton Creek Trail, and falls. Fantastic hike overall. Well maintained trails
Enjoying a refreshing swim on a warm summer evening.
We hiked the skyline trail in our first few days of moving to WA state from GA. It was beautiful but oh man, was it crowded! Also, the elevation gain itself wasn't bad, but the thin air towards the top was unlike what I'd ever experienced. Still, 10/10 would do it again!
