This small falls graced the trailside on the way to Eagle's Cove in Salt Creek Recreation Area

Eagle Cove required a steep 200 foot drop down to it's edges, which the group handled quite well despite the gloomy skies

A gorgeous grove of old growth along Eagle's Cove Trail
Tongue Point, where we explored tidepools 8 days prior, was now scattered with small rocky islands
Low tide wouldn't be until 7PM, which didn't make for good beach walking today.

Elwha River Bridge, built in 2009, carries the Olympic Discovery Trail underneath the road bridge
From the Elwha Bridge, fresh snow could be seen on hillside not far above us
