More pictures from our whale watching. Don’t miss the “blow” from the whale in picture #1.
Wednesday we drove west to Neah Bay and the Makah Indian Reservation. We visited the Makah Museum and then we found a place to walk on the beach. It was cold!!!! The temperature dropped from 84 at the campground, just west of Port Angeles, to 54 with 20 mph winds. The smoke wasn’t as bad going west, but the fog rolled in on the beaches. Thursday we drove up to Hurricane Ridge (in the park). Beautiful drive. Smoke was less, but halfway up we were socked in with fog. Then before reaching the top at about 5,000 feet, we came out of the fog and it was clear. We took a short hike through an alpine meadow. Today we left Port Angeles and headed to Forks. We stopped at Sol Duc Hot Springs on the way. We had to park at the Ranger Station and walk to the springs, so we got in our walk for the day. Made it to the campground outside of Forks early and we have been resting. Here for four nights. This is where the Twilight movies and series were filmed. Rainforests and beaches to see in the next few days.
