Back to the woods

Summer's here!

It was a nice spring, but there's nothing like the long, warm days of summer.

Was good to get out to Lake Crescent in Olympic National Park. We sure have been itching for a walk in the woods. Today was perfect a stroll up to Marymere Falls near Barnes Point.

The trail is pretty easy -- just 1.5 miles round trip with two bridges over the streams. It's only a short uphill hike to the falls overlook.

Marymere is among the most popular places in the park and for good reason. It's a tranquil place, despite a steady stream of visitors taking photographs!
