Escape Plan:
The Olympic Peninsula is a microcosm of Northwest ecosystems! Here you find remote beaches littered with tide-scoured cedar logs alongside the country's oldest forests and one of the state's most dramatic mountain ranges. The options are endless, and your senses will never rest. The Peninsula harbors some of the greatest true wilderness left in the contiguous United States, including a lush temperate rain forest. Sixteen species of plants and animals evolved here and nowhere else. We will catch sight of a waterfall or two as well as take a few short interpretive nature walks. Along the scenic loop is the Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge. Your naturalist guide will lead you out onto the sand spit that hooks out into the strait to an old lighthouse, spotting for birds all along the way. In Spring and Fall thousands of waterfowl and shorebirds descend on the shallow waters protected by the spit! Next we climb up to Hurricane Ridge, a mountain citadel that puts you at the edge of the parks exceptionally jagged peaks. We watch for wildlife, too; Olympic marmots and black-tailed deer often show up, and black bear are fairly common. From the meadows at the summit take in a superb 360-degree view that embraces the surrounding mountains, the strait, the San Juan Islands.
