Justin and Scott Backpack Olympic National Park

Justin and our friend Scott spent last week backpacking in Olympic National Park, on the west coast of Washington. They spent the first two and a half days in the Hoh River Valley and the following two and a half days on the coast at Toleak Point.

(Justin is now dictating to me) We enjoyed the finest in dehydrated foods available. We pumped water from questionable streams. We slept in very close proximity to one another. We made a friend "Mr. Wilson-san." And we refrained from bathing for five days. It was a fantastic trip.
