Good Oly hike for July 4th? was created by lernr
Hi,

My wife would like to try a good hike in Olympic NP for the 4th - something like 6-8 hr hike to get to a lodge, sleep there, go back the next day.

Or can be more than 2 days BUT we need to sleep in lodges, no tent business  ;D Good views / opportunities for some photography would be nice but not required.

Any recommendations? I planned to research, but thought 4th is next Friday so now it seems I'm out of time...

Thank you
Ivo

Lake Quinalt is pretty cool, I went there as a kid. They have some good views  and other local native american attractions. I think there might be some good hikes there as well, they also have lodges btw. Ummm, idk. The best thing to do would be to call the ranger station.

I hope you found something :) Give a trip report to let us know how the olympic mountains are if you feel up for it. Been so used to seeing the cascades haha.
