Olympic National Park

August 28, 2014 Mary Hall

All we were told about Olympic National Park is how unbelievable all the waterfalls and the rainforest is. No one ever mentions the ocean beaches, let alone the fact that they are covered in beautiful skipping rocks and driftwood, or that the camping is only $10 a night.

We nestled into our campsite for our first night in the park and topped off the day with a stroll along the beach, ending at an impressive driftwood fortress. It made for the perfect spot to watch the sunset and escape the howling wind.

It was such a peaceful place, I will remember this night on the beach forever. Adam sat outside and read while I sketched inside the trailer, completely content with the silence.
