Sol Duc Falls — Monday, Jul. 5, 2021

Olympic Peninsula > Northern Coast
Don't hang out on the rocks above the waterfall. It's not worth your life.

This is a short, reasonably flat, fairly accessible hike with a lot of parking. A great hike to enjoy with your family, but also a great one for everyone else to also enjoy with their families too. The trail is plenty wide to fit two-way traffic, but expect company (at least up to the bridge)

The only bugs I encountered were some swarms of gnats which were reason enough to wear a mask regardless of vaccination status.

Also, please exercise extreme caution around waterfalls. That includes not hanging out on slippery rocks around the tops of them. People die every year.
