At the Foot of the Olympics

Port Angeles, pop. 19,000, lies on the northern Olympic Peninsula, sandwiched between the Strait of Juan de Fuca and the Olympic Mountains. The town itself isn't of too much interest; it consists mainly of motels, some visitor facilities, a city pier, and an airport. Most people use Port Angeles as a jumping-off point into Olympic National Park. Still, you can wander around the town and of course, eat Dungeness crab, the area seafood specialty.

 I nearly forgot about this little town in WA. Thanks for the reminder and for enjoying another hike with me too.

 I went to Hurricane Ridge when I was a little kid and returned many years later with a delegation from Fujian province. It was fun to watch the Chinese officials act like kids when they played in the snow.

 PA is a very interesting town at the end of America.
