Since I agree with @Cirelo@lemmy.world, I will contribute, too. I however, love the snow and ice for camping, hiking, backpacking, whatever.

This was taken on the coast after backpacking through the Olympics in Washington State.

Where is that spot? I remember walking about 15 miles up the coast to the Norwegian memorial west of Ozette a while back. I love our coastline.

Random road in the Olympics, hit the coast, walk north, walk north some more ๐Ÿ˜‰

I guess I meant where relative to things on the coast. You can keep your secret.

Oh not a secret, truth is I'm trying to remember where we came out. I might have it in a GPX, I'll see if I can dig it up.

Edit: Went and looked, and we stopped at Hole in the Wall: https://maps.app.goo.gl/Rp5YWZ3MVbAKJ8Hq6 so it was surely near there somewhere.

Thought that's where you were. I started my hike south of Hole on Rialto and ended up here at Norwegian.

The Olympic coast is incredible - I did the Ozette triangle trail last summer and the combination of forest and beach camping was insane, just watch out for the tide tables or you'll get stranded lol.

Hah, seriously. I am really good at running along rocks for some reason. I was sprinting around a point so I didn't have to sleep on a stinky beach. Ended up under an eagle's nest. Woke up and harvested mussels and made them for breakfast.
