Spent a great few days there a few years back. Would imagine that road on a bike is beyond fun!!!!!!
I am guessing you did not run out to Cape Flattery since there are no pics of that. That is a great spot in Olympic!
And yes, work sucks just a little more today after looking at your pictures!!!!! Roll on!
