Cool. Let me know when you get here to Seattle and maybe we can get you together with some of the locals. Most of the Cascade trails won't be open until June 15 and you won't find much or any wheeling in the Olympics, but there is a lot scenic camping around Olympic National Park and down the coast. Highway 410 over Chinook Pass will be opened on Memorial Day and that's a great drive with tremendous views of Mt. Rainier and a great place to do some camping (and wheeling after June 15th). There are great views to be had into the crater of Mt. St. Helens from the visitor's center on Johnston Ridge, also, when you're in the area.
Hmmm... schedule challenges here... so my thought was to stay in Seattle on Day 1 (June 10th) (see some of the local attractions after stocking up), stay near Quinault Beach on Day 2 (between points 2 and 3 below), and camp at Elwha Campground in Olympic on Day 3 (point 4 below)... Hope BC by the end of Day 4 (point 8).
What would you change (keeping in mind that we've been to both St Helens and Mt. Rainier before)?
