This was probably my favorite hike. I have no pictures. I fart in my general direction for not having a camera with me. The views were incredible. The Olympics MUST be the most underrated mountain range on the planet. On one side you look down on Puget Sound and Seattle. On the other side its peak after peak, valley after valley. Standing in the middle of it all leaves one speachless. I'll have more of a trip report later on, but for now I just needed to disclose the obvious to anyone who has ever hiked the Olympics and to those who haven't... well, you can only imagine.
