Thank you for your videos, there are always well structured, with good explanation, information. It is particularly good for older people who may not be able to go and visit these places.😊

@NewstateNomads 7 месяцев назад

Thank you so much, Catherine! That truly makes us smile. We always hope to give a good overview for someone planning a trip or visiting virtually with us. ❤ -Katelyn

We were there this summer. Nice to see all the places again in your video!

@2CorgiMom 7 месяцев назад

I am thrilled to see you visit Olympic! Because we’re rather remote, many RV YT channels skip us by. We live just up the road from the visitors center near the entrance to the road to Hurricane. You hit so many of my favorite places - the Elwha valley, Lake Crescent and the Soleduc. I’ve not been out to visit the west side of the park in a while so thank you for the review and incentive for us to get out there!

@leed119 7 месяцев назад

I lived in Port Angeles as a kid. Hurricane was my back yard. Cried when I heard about the fire.

@NewstateNomads 7 месяцев назад

Oh my goodness, we loved our time there! And it's wild to me that many would skip it. It's such an amazing place with lots of diversity. Truly a gem! 😍 So glad we hit some of your favorites! -Katelyn

Thanks for the thorough review of many different places on the Olympic Peninsula! Planning a trip there this summer which will include driving most of RT 101. Looks like a great time! And thanks for also including the link for Katelyn's favorite bag!

Growing up in Washington, we know that the Olympic National Park is fabulous! We did a video that actually praised it as the best National Park in America. I'm glad you were able to visit and hope you get a chance to come back and spend a little more time exploring. Like so many of our great National Parks, the Olympic National Park is huge, and it takes time and planning to experience its beauty. Thank you for sharing your adventures and we look forward to seeing your future videos.

@calledtojourney 7 месяцев назад

Nice job showcasing Olympic! It's such a shame that you didn't get great views from Hurricane Ridge, but it looks like everything else was lovely. The diversity of terrain at Olympic has got to be amongst the highest of any national park. Keep up the awesome work! We know well how much effort it takes to plan, film, and edit good videos, far more than most realize!

@larrytahner3717 7 месяцев назад

Wow! Another fantastic adventure, throughout a very unique and incredibly scenic national park. Thank you so much for all of the very entertaining stops along your tour. These national park videos have really been a tremendous nostalgic memory for me from my much younger days! I was very fortunate to spend nearly an entire summer in the Seattle area during my late 20's, so the Olympic Natl. Park was a favorite place to explore regularly on the weekends. Can't wait to see what's next! Cheers!!!

@NewstateNomads 7 месяцев назад

Thanks so much, Larry! We love hearing that. And so glad we could help you take a trip down memory lane. Sounds like that summer in the Seattle are was quite special! -Katelyn

Wow! I had no idea this park had so many eco systems. I loved the beach, hole in the wall, tide pools, waterfalls, and the rain forests! The staircase area was so awesome. Beautiful video.

@TravelSmallLiveBig 7 месяцев назад

I love how honest you are about the trails! And Katelyn I love your excitement! It’s catching (me) and Howard had the excitement too! Wow - this park looks amazing. It’s been on our list for years, but now it’s really on our list 😂

@NewstateNomads 7 месяцев назад

Haha thank you so much!! :) And yes, we try really hard to help people know what the trails are like so they can plan. We just finished one of the hardest hikes ever yesterday.... wait til you see that one in a few weeks!

@leed119 7 месяцев назад

So, need to visit up there.

Ruby Beach is my favorite Pacific beach in Washington

@NewstateNomads 26 дней назад

Agreed, it's a beautiful beach, Kathleen! I'm not sure I would say the sand was very "Ruby" (like the beaches we found up on Prince Edward Island, Canada), but just gorgeous scenery. 👍 -Howard

@christineciocco4507 6 месяцев назад

Not sure if you know, but there is a cookbook -The National Parks Cookbook: The Best Recipes from (and Inspired by) America’s National Parks (Great Outdoor Cooking) by Linda Ly, Will Taylor (Hardcover). The Dungeness Crab Mac and Cheese is a featured recipe in the book for Olympic National Park. It's a wonderful book with some cool stories as well. Thanks again for all the great content on the National Parks this year. Hope to see you two and Scout in January at the Tampa RV show.

@MrfiX725 7 месяцев назад

As a foodie and a road-tripper, I always always always look forward to your food recommendations. THANK YOU!!! (FYI, that Grayson chicken sandwich did look GUUUD. And my partner totally makes up songs on the fly.)

@NewstateNomads 7 месяцев назад

Yay! We love hearing that... especially since we love to eat and share our great finds! You're so welcome. Hahahah love that your partner makes up songs too! 👏😂❤ -Katelyn

We live in "Sunny" Sequim. (Still pretty Grey in the winter). If you go west from Sequim it's about an inch of rain/mile to the Hoh Rainforest.

@NewstateNomads 7 месяцев назад

Wow! That's pretty incredible!

@nataliehansen6865 3 месяца назад

Thank you! This was very helpful. I'm starting my National Park tour in Olympic NP! I've been dying to go because of the diverse scenery! Is most of the park accessible by RV? Unfortunately, there are no shuttles available in Olympic. My Rv is 24" by 8". I'm booking different camp sites along Olympic NP, Sul Duc to Kalaloch to HoH to Staircase. But how easy do you think it will be for me to get around and park at the trail heads? Thank you in advance!

The green things in the the tide pool I believe are sea anemone. Love your videos especially this year as I have been to several National Parks, including Olympic.

@beckynewport5980 7 месяцев назад

@@NewstateNomads Smokies was my dad's favorite so we went there often, back in the days of heavy canvas tents with internal tent poles. I was probably 5 the first trip, I'm now 68 and cherish those family camping vacations. Now I'm a weekend warrior with my great dane here in Northern Illinois. Great that the Senior Park pass is accepted at Corp of Engineering campgrounds. We have a pop up right now. My husband joins us on longer trips. He doesn't camp just for the sake of camping. 🤣

@melaniehooper3595 9 дней назад

What audio tour are you using?

@TurboLoveTrain 3 месяца назад

Sad but true story: Usually the first thing that people do when they move here from out of state is cut down all the trees in their yard :( Almost all the evergreen trees here live for over 1,000 years and most trees in PNW towns are maybe 50 or 60... the trees will easily outlive the house but people still cut them down because they just don't take the time to learn about them.

@NaveenKumar-ki8qs 6 месяцев назад

Is November the best time to visit this Olympic National park?

@NewstateNomads 6 месяцев назад

Naveen, it's definitely a milder time but greatly depends on what type of activities you're looking for during your trip! Are you looking for hikes, whale watching, etc? - Howard

@toddramsay977 5 месяцев назад

So what’s the difference from 50 ft and 873 ft, both will kill you if you fall? I guess it is individual concept.

How did you guys do this with dogs? It seems almost nowhere allows dogs :/

@NewstateNomads 3 месяца назад

Hey there! While most trails aren't dog friendly, there's an entire section where we show the dog friendly beach in this episode. When they can't explore with us, they stay cozy in their home. ❤️ Most parks have sections of their website that highlight dog friendly trails and programs, like BARK Ranger programs.
