La Push at the beach.


THese logs at 2nd Beach near LaPush are so delightful, to see the power of the ocean, and imagine these giants being tossed around.

Somebody left a baseball mitt, a pillow, and some gatorade, maybe they will be back?

First beach La Push


Beautiful beaches of the PNW, this is Rialto Beach

These canoes are the great canoes of the  Great Quinault Nation
The ocean at 1st beach, LaPush
We saw 10 mature eagles Sunday and Monday here at LaPush, and I met some nice people, and bought my first Quiluete basket.

The Quiluete River today, 10 bald eagles spotted easily and seals catching chinook salmon coming in from the ocean. A run as they call it. Yes, near Forks Washington of Twilight fame.


It was a sunny, but windy day today. I love the wind though, and the rain, sun, snow, hard to complain, at least weather here is mild. So hiked to 2nd beach, and walked down the beach. hat was nice was all the people coming out of the beach laden with some stuff that was found on the beaches..amazing..



We saw 12 eagles, many young ones, probably 6 mature ones with white tail feathers and white heads. There were sea lions in the water there at 1st beach and the Quileute river, they were catching chinook I guess which must be running, and the gulls were diving for what was in their mouths when they came up for air.

It was amazing to watch and I learned a lot watching. Check back tomorrow for a review.
