Day 137: Forest Trail

We were going to take a hike along a lake but that part of Olympic National Park turned out to be shut because they are removing a couple of dams that created the lake in the first place.  The idea is to reopen the habitat for wild salmon.  It seems to be taking a very long time, because they started in the mid 1990s and the lake is still there.  Since we couldn't get near the lake, we climbed a hill through dense forest to an overlook.  That turned out to be a bit of problem for us as well, because someone forgot to take enough water.
