This Gold Creek Loop has been on our radar the whole summer but we’ve been busy and finally got around to it. Although, originally we planned a different loop, we opted out of part of the trail and subbed...
Elk Mountain Hike
Elk Mountain Loop up at Observation Point might be my favorite hike of the summer on the Olympic Peninsula. This is doable from Port Angeles as a day trip or you could add on and make it a longer...
Port Gamble Mountain Biking
The trail system in Port Gamble was such a hit last time so we rode there again. This time we started at the small park in town and incorporated some different trails. The system is very well laid out...

Little River Hike
This is our second time hiking Little River Trail in Olympic National Park and it was just as magical. It’s such a quiet uncrowded trail in deep forest. It’s almost creepy in places since it’s so quiet and dense....
