What? A view?

This was the Klamath River Overlook today. If you were to use your imagination you see the Klamath River emptying into the Pacific Ocean. This should not be confused with an inlet a few miles north named False Klamath, where I assume some early explorer got a little lost in fog like today’s. Anyway, for what it's worth, I’ve now been to both ends of the Klamath River, which is a happier river since its dams were removed.

  3. Here's the Olympic Hot Springs Rd into the Elwha area

    It's just a little ways west of Port Townsend.
