Today, with both dams gone, the Elwha River flows freely through the valley from its headwaters in the Olympic Mountains to the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Lake Mills and Lake Aldwell reservoirs have drained and for the first time in a century, salmon and other migratory fish returned within months to 70 miles of spawning habitat, bringing with them the promise of a restored ecosystem and renewed cultural tradition for the Elwha Klallam Tribe. There are two locations to view the old dam sites. The Glines Canyon Overlook at former Lake Mills has part of the old dam remaining with interpretive panels along the viewing walkway. Trails along the former shores and lakebed offer a perspective of the large restoraOPENING MAY 1 tion area.

The Elwha River Restoration story continues… Photo: John Gussman Elwha River Restoration Viewpoints 25 The Olympic Peninsula is home to a long tradition of forestry that has shaped the culture as well as the landscape for more than a century. In the late 19th century, forests contributed significantly to the building of America’s cities and transportation systems. Early loggers Olympic forests provided a growing nation with the necessary wood products to build a sustainable quality of life for everyone. The practice of forestry is now evolving with the public’s growing appreciation of wild spaces and renewal of natural resources. This is the legacy and the benefit of the working forest. The Olympic Peninsula’s forestry legacy continues today in second- and third-growth forests, providing products for the nation and jobs for the people of the Olympic Peninsula. The Olympic Peninsula is a wonderful place to learn about the working forest. Visit Merrill & Ring’s 125-year-old tree farm at Pysht for insight on forestry’s evolving management of sustainable natural resources. To learn more, please visit Forestry. org/Washington/forest.

The Olympic National Park (ONP) Visitor Center has information on indigenous species and safety information about animals better not seen up close, such as black bear, bobcats and cougar. Roosevelt elk: in the lower ONP areas and often seen on the peninsula. Mountain goats and marmots: in ONP at higher altitudes. 28 Hoh River Steelhead The Olympic Peninsula is bordered by the Pacific Ocean, the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Hood Canal, plus it has some of the best river fishing in the world. Sekiu, Clallam Bay, Neah Bay and La Push have been ocean-fishing destinations for decades. Many charters sail out of these harbors. The Bogachiel, Hoh and Sol Duc Rivers offer superb freshwater fishing, plus the many lakes offer excellent fishing, too. Note regulations, which can vary. The Olympic Peninsula is home of the prized Dungeness crab, celebrated annually during the Dungeness Crab & Seafood Festival in Port Angeles. Hood Canal, especially near Quilcene and Brinnon, is famous for its shellfish. Ozette Beach Birding Enthusiasts come to the Olympic Peninsula from around the world to watch for more than 300 species of birds, including bald eagles, marbled murrelets, brants, falcons, dippers and widgeons. Popular coastal viewing areas include Cape American Goldfinch Flattery, Neah Bay, along Hwy 112, Port Angeles’ waterfront and Ediz Hook, Dungeness Spit and Marrowstone Island east of Port Townsend. Protection Island at the head of Discovery Bay provides nesting habitat to 70% of Puget Sound’s seabird population. Bald eagles, harbor seals and deer from the mainland also feed and breed here. Though no access to the island is permitted, several companies offer boat tours to view this 364-acre site from the water. Inland, go bird-watching by the upper waters of Dungeness and Gray Wolf Rivers in Olympic National Forest and at Hurricane Ridge in the Olympic National Park. The Dungeness River Audubon Center at Railroad Bridge Park offers Wednesday morning bird walks year round. Visit DungenessRiverCenter.org for more information. 29 Four Casinos Elwha River Casino: located about 15 minutes west of Port Ange- les more than 100 electronic slot machines. 7 Cedars Casino: on Hwy 101 at Blyn, five miles east of Sequim.

Along its shores are thriving intertidal communities, teeming with fish, kelp and other sea life. Along the sea bed, scattered communities of deep sea coral and sponges form habitats for fish and other important marine wildlife. Visit the Olympic Coast Discovery Center in Port Angeles to learn about these marine creatures and habitats. FREE admission. Open daily 10am – 5pm from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Open weekends only 10am – 5pm September through mid-October. To schedule a tour in the off-season, phone 360-457-6622. Photo: InsideOut Solutions, Inc.

Whether you’re looking for an alpine forest, a mossy valley or peaceful rocky beach you’ll find a rewarding location to experience. Accommodations vary widely from full amenities to remotely rustic. Keep in mind that summer months are busiest and spots fill up fast on weekends. It is best to reserve a spot in advance, but note that all sites within Olympic National Park except those at Olympic National Park & Forest lodges are on a first-come first-served basis.
