The plants make me feel like I’m on another planet in the best way!

Took my dog for a walk (Seattle) and was pleasantly surprised to see that spring had sprung!

Cape Flattery

One of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen. The furthest Northwest point in the continental US. The Makah people have been stewards of this land and sea for millennia. They are whale hunters who use canoes made from hollowed out giant redwood trees. Truly astonishing and magical.

A Gray whale swam 20 miles up Willapa River in southwest Washington on April Fools and hasn't left

One of the strangest PNW wildlife stories I’ve seen in a while: a gray whale went about 20 miles up the Willapa River in southwest Washington and, according to locals in the area, still hasn’t made it back out.

Is November a good time to visit Pacific Northwest?

Hi, I was wondering is it worth to visit Washington, North Oregon, especially seaside in late october/ early november? Or should I wait to next year's spring. I'm from Europe, so I have to book everything in big advance.

Concerts at the Gorge Amphitheater?

I’ve never been and it’s kind of a bucket list thing for me. But I don’t understand the logistics bc it’s in the middle of nowhere. Do people drive home 5 hours after? Do they camp? How does it work?

5 Day PNW Couples Trip Suggestions

Hey 👋

My boyfriend and I are celebrating our 5 year anniversary by visiting the PNW for 5 days. Our trip is in a few weeks and we’re starting to research what we want to do.

We’re flying to Portland OR, planning to spend the day exploring it, then drive to Port Angeles, WA. We’re planning to spend 2 days in Olympic National Park, then one day in Victoria, BC (is it worth visiting?). Our last day/night we’ll be in Seattle, where we depart from, we have a solid 24 hours to kill there.

We’re mid to late twenties who love hiking/nature, reading/watching films, eating good food (our favorites are breakfast foos and thai/asian cuisine), good coffee, good cocktails, but not looking to go to super touristy or insanely expensive places. He’s a gamer, I’m a reader, and we both love the outdoors.

We’re from the Northeast and never get over to that side of the country so we want to make the most of it!

- Day 1 Portland

- Day 2/3 Port Angeles / ONP

- Day 4 Victoria

- Day 5 Seattle
