The Hoh Rainforest - Olympic National Park

Cover Image for The Hoh Rainforest - Olympic National Park

I recently visited the Hoh Rainforest in the Olympic National Park.  It's a magical place featuring soaring pine trees, maples festooned with dripping moss, fern fronds and streams so clear you can't see the water in them when it's not moving!

If you do get a chance to go there, stay until near sunset to get the best lighting - you've never seen such vibrant greens as the pond weed growing in the streams there.

Click the images to enlarge them. These two were taken with the Canon D10.
