Our campground hosts kindly shared a local "jewel" of the area: a waterfall just outside of the city of Brinnon (that's the city we're in!). We took their advice and drove out Dosewallips Rd. to the 3-mile marker, parked in the turnout, and walked the short distance (past the Rocky Brook hydroelectric building) to the hugest waterfall we've been able to get close to; 229 feet! You can feel the spray, and in the summer, it's said, kids swim in the green pool at the base of the crashing falls!
I've got to get Art to read your blog....we will be all over tracking down these waterfalls. And how come it's just the kids that swim in that green pool......maybe I miss interpreted that......maybe they meant kids of all ages, I'd like to think!
ReplyDeleteI thought the same thing! I'd totally swim in them (if it were a bit warmer, that is!)!
