The Olympic Peninsula and British Columbia Forests

The B.C. forest pics (last 2) were taken when I took Take Ten's dingy ashore into the British Columbia outback, no longer able to resist the forest's siren call.  But it is much more severe from the inside than it looks from without; impassable in many places.  I found a lot of evidence of very large animals...not sure if they were bear, boar or what.

The trip around the Olympic Peninsula is itself photo worthy.  Unfortunately it was very cloudy with little views of the Olympic Range possible.  Most of the good photo ops were from inside the Hoh rain forest within the Olympic National Park
