“THE OLYMPIC PENINSULA, PRACTICALLY AN ISLAND SQUEEZED BETWEEN THE OCEAN AND PUGET SOUND, HOLDS A WORLD OF ITS OWN, AS GENEROUS AS IT IS UNFORGIVING. AND, THOUGH THIS LANDSCAPE FACES THE SAME CHALLENGES AS THE REST OF OUR WORLD, AMAZINGLY IT ABIDES TO THIS DAY AS A PLACE OF WILD PROMISE. HERE AT THE EDGE OF THE CONTINENT, MANY WONDERS REMAIN TO EXPLORE.”
