A quaint seaside village where the Astor Party created the first American settlement in the Pacific Northwest, creating 50 years of joint rule with the Brits. Also where Lewis and Clark overwintered before returning home. Site of a MASSIVE bridge over the entrance to the Columbia as well a a jetty which sticks a mile out into the ocean. It's windy, it's cold, it's awesome!

"The Washington State History Museum, in downtown Tacoma, Washington, is one of two museums owned and operated by the Washington State Historical Society under the official approval of the Washington State Legislature, the other being the Capitol Museum.
The museum maintains three permanent exhibits. One is about the history of Washington State and relation to the Pacific Northwest with artifacts from Women's Suffrage, Industrialization, Native American Tribes and items such as Clovis Points.
The top floor of the museum contains the History Lab, where visitors can explore and learn about history in a more hands-on fashion with multiple interactive exhibits."

Parks & Nature
An Icon on the Horizon
Ascending to 14,410 feet above sea level, Mount Rainier stands as an icon in the Washington landscape. An active volcano, Mount Rainier is the most glaciated peak in the contiguous U.S.A., spawning six major rivers. Subalpine wildflower meadows ring the icy volcano while ancient forest cloaks Mount Rainier’s lower slopes. Wildlife abounds in the park’s ecosystems. A lifetime of discovery awaits.

Throughout the winter season, rain falls frequently in the Hoh Rain Forest, contributing to the yearly total of 140 to 170 inches (or 12 to 14 feet!) of precipitation each year. The result is a lush, green canopy of both coniferous and deciduous species. Mosses and ferns that blanket the surfaces add another dimension to the enchantment of the rainforest.
The Hoh Rain Forest is located in the stretch of the Pacific Northwest rainforest which once spanned the Pacific coast from southeastern Alaska to the central coast of California. The Hoh is one of the finest remaining examples of temperate rainforest in the United States and is one of the park's most popular destinations.

Sub-alpine wildflower meadows a mile high on Rainier. On this 3-mile-high volcano, you can drive up the first mile, hike up the second mile (from Paradise, across the Muir snowfields to Camp Muir -- base camp for summitting), but you've got to climb that last mile! During winter, the road to Paradise is (miraculously) kept open to the snowiest place on Earth where snow fall records are regularly recorded -- including a record 93.5 feet during the winter of 1971-2. Average is 54 feet. Great snowshoeing or cross country skiing.

Mt. St. Helens National Volcanic Monument -- the official visitors center built on the ridge where David Johnston, USGS volcanologist, radioed that he was witnessing Mt. St. Helens collapse in the largest landslide in recorded history.... and where he perished moments later. The views of the crater are stunning, and a 9-mile hike will take you into the crater atop the debris -- to the limit where the public is allowed to travel. Ascending the Sasquatch Steps, a waterfall pours out of the crated into the debris field. Pumice stones the size of your head lay scattered about the pumice fields (because of the air pockets, you can toss them about like softballs). Nothing beats the night sky!

3 massive waterfalls on the Lewis River between the back side (not receiving the eruption) of Mt. St. Helens and Mt. Adams. The river forms one of the borders of the Dark Divide -- the largest roadless wilderness in the lower 48 and a perpetual candidate for Nat'l Park protection. This area is SECLUDED -- no cell, few cars, few visitors in remote Skamania County. If Sasquatch lives, it's here.

"A waterfall as magnificent and memorable as any in the country is located just a 30- minute drive outside of Portland. Visiting Multnomah Falls, a 611-foot-tall roaring, awe-inspiring cascade of icy water, lets you experience the power and beauty of nature up close and with ease. From the parking area off of I-84, a 5-minute walk is all that separates you from the exhilarating spray at the base of the falls."
A hiking trail ascending to the top of the falls, then back down the other side encounters 5 separate falls.
