Marmot Pass via Upper Dungeness River Trail, Lower Dungeness River — Thursday, Feb. 12, 2009

Olympic Peninsula > Hood Canal

There was very little snow on the road to the TH except for areas which receive little or no sun and these are probably doable by any car with good tires although we did have our truck in 4WD. There is very little snow on the trail. We hiked a mile to the Royal Basin Trail and walked about 1/4 mile on it. The River and Royal Creek were beautiful with several beautiful ice formations. If time had allowed, we would have gone farther on the Royal Basin Trail which also had very little snow.
