...this summer on the grey wolf/cameron creek loop.

By far the most extremely difficult and rewarding trip I've made into the Olympic interior. Looking on the map, it doesn't look like much until you start seeing the elevation changes, which amount to really climbing three passes over five thousand feet. Cameron Pass in particular was the hardest climb I think I've ever done....over twelve hundred feet in .9 mile.

It was four solid days of hiking, somewhere in the neighborhood of 38 to 40 miles.

Here's a few pics, they're cool but they really don't do this magnificent hike justice....

Right on H2O!

1200' in under a mile is rough! Funny how It don't look so bad on the map though. Even funnier is how quickly the pain is forgotten!

That last picture looks like it could have been taken out of a helocopter. That must be a pretty cool place!

I've done many hikes up the upper dungeness and love that area. Thanks for bringing back the memories...
