Here is our unplanned trip to Hurricane Ridge Olympic National Park on June 08, 2021. We stayed a night in Port Angeles and drove up to the park around 11am. There are several cars on the road but not really that crowded up there. The weather was nice but a bit chilly, cloudy, and rainy at some part. Hurricane Ridge is the most visited place in the Olympic National Park.

Little blue picking through the clouds and the happy little flowers
A mile beyond the visitor center and this is the beauty you'll see. Even with the clouds covering most of the mountain range, the view still is amazing! |
 |
Several waterfalls can be seen on the road up to Hurricane Ridge and lots of beautiful wildflowers everywhere

Welcome to Olympic National Park
About 5 miles from this sign is where the Hurricane Ridge National Park entrance and fee station. |
 |
| There are 3 little short tunnels that are really closed to each other |
 |
| Daisies, tress, a little bit of the view of Strait of Juan de Fuca |

This tree might be dead but still have it's awe
Nice road up to Hurricane Ridge but it is narrow and twisty and some part is drop down without guardrails.

Hurricane Ridge Visitor Center
Olympic National Park
About 17 miles uphill from Port Angeles Washington. It's a nice visitor center, it has restrooms, gift shop, and a nice outdoor patio for breathtaking views of the mountain range. Can also pick up map and brochures here for the park. |
 |
| It was a chilly day and the clouds are rolling in and it's starting to rain but the visitors are enjoying the snow, walking up to the hilltop. |
 |
It was cloudy but the view still amazing.
Looking over the Hurricane Ridge Visitor Center and the parking lot. There are several deer on this picture but can hardly see them

Picnic Area
The views there are so amazing! About a mile past the Hurricane Ridge Visitor Center. A nice paved parking lot, restrooms, and few picnic tables
|
 |
| I guess we visited the Hurricane Ridge Olympic National Park too early. There are still snow covering some of the picnic tables |
 |
Deer oh dear!
So many of them out there and some on the road, so be careful when driving |
 |
| I love the shape of the snow on the ground, looks interesting to me. On our way down Port Angeles from Hurricane Ridge Visitor Center |
