Snow at the Beach!

Since we don't get down to freezing very often, snow at the beach is rare.  When it does happen, it's beautiful!

Ocean Shores Day Trip - Past Wynoochee Falls Towards Wonder Mt Wilderness

Looking out towards Wonder Mountain Wilderness



This was the road


We took Donkey Creek Rd off of 101 and drove out to the East side of Lake Wynoochee.  Following the road north past the lake, we took the first left over the bridge and followed a very rough road for about 1 hr until we reached the turn off for forest service road 400 on the left.

Access to Olympic National Park from the trail at the end of rd 400 which eventually meets up with Graves Creek Trail out of Lake Quinault.


The road was really, really rough near the top, and we even lost a tire to a large rock!

Contact LaurieAndChristian  for more info on access and trails into the Olympic National Park, and Olympic National Forest/ Wilderness Areas.

Pocket Kite

Great idea for a walk on the beach - Fits on your keychain, so nothing to haul.  Just don't lose your keys on the beach!
