Great place to take a hike. It takes a while to get to know all the good parks, but once you do. Then you can spend many happy hours walking through the woods. Are along the sure am . The main road gets a bit busy at times and the housing can be expensave. But you can visit as A-day trip from the Seattle area. Or if you can find a nice place to stay. It can be a very relaxing 3 or 4 days in the country.
