Travel: Pacific Northwest Some notes from Robert and Tammy's latest travel to National Parks in Washinton and Oregon. We'll be sharing photos from the trip over the next days/weeks. By Robert Ellis Our trip to the Pacific Northwest would require a lot of road time (in the end 973 miles). Our itinerary included driving around most of the circumference of Olympic National Park, and spending one day in Mt. Rainier National Park (we would have spent more time in Rainier but part of the park was closed due to fires). We flew into Portland, Oregon; overnighted and headed out the next morning towards the coastline of Oregon and Washington. After visiting a couple beaches it was then on to Olympic National Park in Washington. In this park we would drive to Hurricane Ridge, and visit a couple Rain Forests. Ultimately, we would finish the trip in Mt. Rainier National Park in Washington for a day and drive back to Portland to overnight. We flew back to Kentucky the next day. 2026-08-30 20:25:51 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Robert Ellis
