To me, the Olympic Peninsula is one of those places that is so powerful, its presence shines through in every word written there, and in every other sensation it is possible to possess and experience.

Annie Dillard: "The difficulty and expense of reaching Puget Sound at all, from anywhere on the planet earth including Oregon, had drawn men and women as hard as mules, whose arrival proved their endurance."

In this minute of Rare Air, you can join me at the Tongue Point Marine Life Sanctuary in Crescent Bay… part of the Salt Creek Recreation Area where I camped for a few nights with my family back in 2014, while touring Olympic National Park. The spot appears on the map below, snared from the awesome website for The Strait of Juan de Fuca Scenic Byway: http://highway112.org. Throughout time, the areas all along the Highway 112 corridor have been home to people of the Klallam and Makah tribes: Exploring their cultures and histories are wonderful aspects of visiting.

Good times: June 20-22 were spent camping at Salt Creek, and touring the area during the days.

Earlier this year in April, I filled you in on some of the highlights of our 2014 vacation to Olympic National Park in Washington, and shared a video I had captured on June 18. Today, I’m inviting you to join me and Beth on our adventure the next day.

As you'll see in the next episode of Rare Air, exploring Rialto Beach was a vivid memory that's sure to live on for a while.
