Exploring the Olympic Peninsula (WA)
from Overland Trail Guides Podcast Hosted by Jeff Thiel
We chat with Jeff Thiel from Washington state about his experiences exploring the Olympic Peninsula this past summer. We'd shared a route still under development called the Olympic Traverse, and Jeff agreed he'd provide us with some boots-on-the-ground intel, recognizing that the route hadn't been fully researched and developed at the time. We're happy to say that Jeff's feedback has been a godsend and it's motivated us to finish up the route guide before winter rolls around. The Olympic Traverse is a 600+ mile loop through the Olympic National Park and Olympic National Forest that visits some of the Pacific Northwest's most spectacular scenery. Check Out Jeff's Youtube Channel at Where to Next? Overland Trail Guides features thousands of miles of curated routes, including the Olympic Traverse. Want to Support OTG?

What this episode covers
The Olympic Mountains and Olympic National Park are one of the treasures of the Pacific Northwest. For the past several months, we've been working on a 600+ loop through the Olympic Peninsula that we're calling the Olympic Traverse. We chat with Jeff Thiel about his experience doing portions of the route earlier this summer. If old growth rainforests, crystal clear streams and rivers, wild beaches, and glacier capped mountain peaks are your thing, you'll definitely want to give this episode a listen! You can check out Jeff's Youtube channel Where to Next, which also features his adventure into the olympics. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCV0Jm3cbHRzlHaTSno9s8Rw
