"With its incredible range of precipitation and elevation, diversity is the hallmark of Olympic National Park. Encompassing nearly a million acres, the park protects a vast wilderness, thousands of years of human history, and several distinctly different ecosystems, including glacier-capped mountains, old-growth temperate rain forests, and over 70 miles of wild coastline." - US Parks Service

The Olympic Peninsula is the Ancestral homeland of eight different tribes including the Lower Elwha Klallam, Jamestown S'Klallam, Port Gamble S'Klallam, Skokomish, Quinault, Hoh, Quileute, and Makah. As we recreate on these lands, we seek to steward it well through protection, preservation, and care in an effort to honor these tribes culture and ties to the peninsula.
