Hall of Moss Trail

This mile and a half stroll crosses a small creek and up to an older grove of trees. western hemlock, douglas firs, bigleaf maple, western cedar, red alder, vine maple, black cottonwood, and the sitka spruce live together with a slew of different epiphytes-- plants which live on other plants.

Beaches

There are numerous beaches that can be visited, most are simply numbered, i.e. beach trail 3. ruby beach is one exception, which also happens to be very hard to get to. this makes ruby beach one of many ideal locations to visit if you are seeking solitude while you enjoy nature. despite the small populations in this part of the state, some of the beaches can be quite crowded during a small period in the summer months usually 3 weeks or so in late june and early july, with fishermen, clamers, and screaming children.
