Hi friends - this is a wonderful hike on the Olympic Peninsula, up to the summit of Mount Townsend. This is a very popular trail and is now one of my favorites too! There are lots of wildflowers and expansive views. It's a challenging trail as it gains 3,000' of elevation in just over 4 miles, but it's totally worth the effort!!
