two trips to hurricane ridge.
olympic national park.

Posted on October 4, 2018by sarah

firstly. a disclaimer. i really struggled with how to organize my thoughts and posts from olympic national park. between doing stuff just as a family and doing stuff with jenn and brandy, and that not necessarily being in chronological order, plus some random other stuff that happened in that week, it feels like total chaos.

sol duc and marymere falls.
olympic national park.

Posted on October 4, 2018October 4, 2018by sarah

on our first (and bonus day) on the north side of olympic national park, the weather was overcast and rainy, so we decided it would be a good day to find a rainforesty type of hike. there’s several actual rainforests in olympic, but the sol duc area is sort of on the edge of hoh […]

travel day detour to cape flattery.

Posted on October 4, 2018by sarah

when we left quileute (and it’s proximity to the closed down hoh rainforest) and traveled to a walmart in port angeles near our next campsite, our route took us around the northwest corner of the olympic peninsula. and since derek had to work anyways, we decided it was a good time to make a detour […]

ruby beach with the bigger two.
olympic national park.

Posted on October 3, 2018by sarah

on our last day in quileute, i made the executive decision to take the big two kids to ruby beach, about an hour south of our campground. it’s part of olympic national park and is known for it’s pretty epic tide pools and haystack rocks. low tide was at 8:51 am, so we got on […]

a (mostly) rainy week in quileute.

Posted on October 3, 2018by sarah

so. it rains a lot in the pacific northwest. no surprise there. but it really really rains a lot on the coast near la push, washington. and we mostly chose this campground due to its proximity to the hoh rainforest, but on our hike to hole-in-the-wall, some friendly hikers informed us that a road had […]

hole-in-the-wall, rialto beach.
olympic national park.

Posted on October 3, 2018by sarah

as soon as we moved from ocean city to our campground on the quileute reservation in la push, washington, we bundled up and loaded the kids in the car for a hike at rialto beach, which is part of olympic national park. our main motivation for rushing to this hike as soon as we arrived […]

lake quinault adventures.

Posted on September 7, 2018May 15, 2021by sarah

this might just be my fastest ever turnaround from doing a thing to posting about it. this past weekend, we moved further north up the coast, to ocean city washington. it’s not really near much of anything and there’s a dead whale on the beach at our campground, so, well, we are mostly laying low.

Posted on September 5, 2018by sarah

on our travel day, from seaside to ocean city, we decided to take a big detour and visit our friends, the jacksons, who were staying about an hour and a half away. jenn planned an epic day of fun and sugar for the lidkids, making this their favorite travel day pit stop of all time. […]

aquariums and randomness from seaside, oregon.

Posted on September 5, 2018by sarah

we kept pretty busy getting out and about to adventure during our time at seaside, visiting the cheese factory, cannon beach and all things goonies in astoria, and the lewis and clark park. but, some other cool stuff happened in between. one such cool thing was a little trip to the aquarium with just anna.
