We will enjoy two lovely trails inside the Olympic National Park which meander through beautiful forest along the North Fork Skokomish River.  I lead hikes to enjoy the natural world, stopping to identify plants, take photos and listen to the sounds of nature.  This trip has it all in one of my favorite locations on the Olympic Peninsula.

Details will be emailed to people on the roster as the date of the trip approaches.
