Briefly about
the general area:
You clearly must fancy the Olympic Mountains. Hades Creek is a splendid site to have a look at, and get soaked paddling on Sitkum River.
Coming to this river is always a good idea. Pass Trail is good enough to spend more than a day at, Hard Rain Cafe`
and RV Park is a good local campground, and why not a little side trip to Cultus Creek. Camping at R and R Sports Center and RV Park is always a delightful experience, and soar down the rapids of Calawah River - South Fork in a kayak.
