ABC Wednesday - F is for ...

... Forest, of course (this was taken on the walk to Marymere Falls, voted the best hike on the Olympic Peninsula).
... and more forest, since there's so much here.
...Ferns in the forest (you can't keep the ferns from growing everywhere - they're even growing up from underneath our deck).
... Cape Flattery framed by firs (Cape Flattery is the most NW point on the 48 lower states).

... and, as a quilter, I had to include fabric at Chinook Pharmacy here in Forks.

F was actually no problem here in Forks. I was glad to be able to find so many this time. I'm having fun with this.

Cape Flattery pathway

Two more pictures of parts of the pathway to Cape Flattery, a couple of flatter portions, with beautiful forest and undergrowth surrounding.

Cape Flattery pathway

This is a piece of the pathway to Cape Flattery - yes, this is actually pathway. The pathway had some ups and downs, and not all of the pathway looked like this, but more than this piece was rooted in, well, roots. It isn't an easy path, but it is beautiful.

Tatoosh Island

The most northwestern point of the contiguous states of the U.S. is Cape Flattery. From the observation point on Cape Flattery, you get this view of Tatoosh Island, Cape Flattery Lighthouse, and the Pacific Ocean. You also get some beautiful views of rugged coastline, and the company of some of the wildlife.

My husband and I made the trek to Cape Flattery this weekend. After driving to the upper coast and onto the Makah Reservation, it's a hike from a parking area that is a lot of up and down, some boardwalk, some stepping rounds (slices of logs) and a lot of roots to avoid. I'll be posting some more pictures this week of the trek to Cape Flattery, and the amazing scenery we saw at the most northwestern corner of the contiguous U.S.
