You have to get up early for reflection

Lake Crescent is so beautiful…even better from the water.

I love the reflections of the rock walls in the water here. But every day by about 10 am the winds have begun and no more reflections.

This area is of a railroad tunnel ( just to the left of the wood bridge) that is now part of the Olympic Discovery trail.

Lake Crescent railroad tunnel

The Olympic Discovery Trail now runs completely around the North side of the lake. It is pedestrian and now bike friendly (no more gravel!)

You have to bring a light source because the tunnels are pitch black, but they aren’t too long. Below the bridge are kayakers enjoying the day.
