Outside of Comfort
Eventually we arrived at Olympic National Park.
The park itself was gorgeous as we arrived...and definitely not busy at all. It was still very early in the season, so we were the only people that were staying at the park. At night it got down to around 20°, which was a bit nippy considering we didn't really have proper cold weather sleeping gear. But that's what layers and long underwear is for!
Our campsite for a couple days (and the only picture on my phone I have of our tent set up..haha. I'm sure my Dad has plenty, though):
We then decided to go up Hurricane Ridge. We drove up pretty high, and then proceeded to hike several miles on foot to get to some better views:
The snow in the parking lot near the ridge:
The Ocean, and in the distance, Canada:
One of my favorite photos of the trip:
