Took the day off to do some exploring of the Olympics and snow conditions.
The road to Hurricane Ridge is under construction most of the way from Heart of the Hills to the top. On the 17th there was fog and some mist from about 3000 feet to the top of the Ridge. We were promised views and just when we approached the parking lot the clouds cleared to views of the Elwha Valley at nearby mountains but not Olympus which was in the clouds.
Expect some delays on the road to Hurricane Ridge all summer and likely into next year. Snow on the Ridge is going quickly and was less than I anticipated. Fog and clouds did not encourage walking so got some coffee to warm up and looked at the views.
Going down in the Fog was no treat but at least we arrived at the bottom in good order.
