  • Olympic Loop This Scenic Drive in Western Washington Explores the Diverse Eco-Systems of the Olympic Peninsula
    RV Traveler's Roadmap to Olympic Loop This scenic drive in western Washington explores the diverse eco-systems of the Olympic Peninsula. Aside from jaw-dropping beauty at every turn, what makes this drive so unique, is that within a few hours, you can explore lowland and sub-alpine forest, rivers and lakes, the glacier-capped peaks of the Olympic Mountains, temperate rainforests, and the rugged beauty of the Pacific Ocean. The route circles the Olympic National Park and Olympic National Forest that encompass nearly one million acres. 1 Highlights & Facts For The Ideal Experience Lighthouse in Port Townsend, WA Trip Length: Roughly 250 miles, not including side trips What to Watch Out For: Be sure to bring rain gear if you plan to hike or camp Best Time To Go: Year round, but best from April-October Must See Nearby Attractions: The Space Needle - view Mt. Rainier, Olympic Range, Puget Sound Seattle Victoria, BC (ferry departures available in Port Angeles, WA 2 Traveler's Notes Ruby Beach In Potlatch, US-101 follows Hood Canal, the longest fjord in the United States. Hood Canal is known for its oysters and clams, and they are a specialty in the many local restaurants. Once you approach Hoodsport, consider a side trip by turning onto WA-119 and visiting Lake Cushman State Park. You'll discover water-based recreation such as fishing, sailing, scuba diving, kite-surfing, kayaking, stand-up paddle boards, water-skiing, and swimming. Port Angeles is fifteen miles from Sequim and is a great base for exploring the Olympic National Park.

  • Iron Horse State Park Trail – Renaming Effort/Trail Update – Report
    Don Hoch Direc tor STATE O F WASHINGTON WASHINGTON STATE PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSI ON 1111 Israel Ro ad S.W. P.O . Box 42650 Olympia, WA 98504-2650 (360) 902-8500 TDD Telecommunications De vice for the De af: 800-833 -6388 www.parks.s tate.wa.us March 22, 2018 Item E-5: Iron Horse State Park Trail – Renaming Effort/Trail Update – Report EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This item reports to the Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission the current status of the process to rename the Iron Horse State Park Trail (which includes the John Wayne Pioneer Trail) and a verbal update on recent trail management activities. This item advances the Commission’s strategic goal: “Provide recreation, cultural, and interpretive opportunities people will want.” SIGNIFICANT BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Initial acquisition of Iron Horse State Park Trail by the State of Washington occurred in 1981. While supported by many, the sale of the former rail line was controversial for adjacent property owners, some of whom felt that the rail line should have reverted back to adjacent land owners. This concern, first expressed at initial purchase of the trail, continues to influence trail operation today. The trail is located south of, and runs roughly parallel to I-90 (see Appendix 1). The 285-mile linear property extends from North Bend, at its western terminus, to the Town of Tekoa, on the Washington-Idaho border to the east. The property consists of former railroad corridor, the width of which varies between 100 feet and 300 feet. The trail tread itself is typically 8 to 12 feet wide and has been developed on the rail bed, trestles, and tunnels of the old Chicago Milwaukee & St.
