  • This was an overnight backpacking trip I did with my girlfriend on Rialto Beach in Olympic National Park in September of 2020. The Pacific Northwest at this time was dealing with intense smoke from record-breaking forest fires throughout the region, so visibility was limited at times. We still managed to have one of the greatest camping experiences of our lifetime, and this campsite could seriously be in the running for the best I've ever had!

    Rialto Beach is one of my favorite places. Raccoons often visit the beach at night. Deer, too, but their eyes would be about the height of a human. Glad you enjoyed the camping experience!

    Great video! A unique perspective with the smoke/fog, but definitely still beautiful. Incredible campsite, too. Glad your unidentified wildlife encounter was a safe one. Looking forward to your next adventure!

    I love your video so much. I've visited the area several times, being from Seattle, and I'm sad you missed some of the best views with the fog and all..but the fog is DEFINITELY a thing here.

      Jason: Provided you did, actually, visit the Rialto Beach area; how did “everything” work out? I was, there, in 1968, while I was working for the DNR, of Washington State.

    The animal you saw in the dark was most likely a raccoon. They are notorious night raiders. We have backpacked this section of the Olympic Coast many, many times in the last 40 years. Raccoons are the reason why bear buckets are required.

    • @mikewanders
      @mikewanders  Рік тому

      Yeah that makes sense. More I’ve thought of it, the more I’m convinced it was a raccoon.

    Do you have to get a permit to camp at the hole in the wall camp ground?

    • @mikewanders
      @mikewanders  2 місяці тому

      That’s a great question. I think it may be one of those general permits, and once you have it you can camp anywhere. I THINK
