“most easily accessed mountain area within Olympic National Park”
Hurricane Ridge is the most easily accessed mountain area within Olympic National Park. In clear weather, fantastic views can be enjoyed throughout the year. Hurricane Ridge is located 17 miles south of Port Angeles on Hurricane Ridge Road, off Mount Angeles Road (directions). The road is open throughout summer. During the winter season, the road is scheduled to be open Friday through Sunday and holiday Mondays, weather and road conditions permitting. All vehicles must carry tire chains during the winter season.
Bit of road construction going on as of late May 2018, but nothing major. Didn't have time to stay and hike, although Hurricane Hill looked great. Drive was really not as windy or as narrow as I feared. Oh, and be on the lookout for wildlife. I saw a bear and it was really neat!
Beautiful views!
We missed our ferry to Victoria and had time to kill til the next one. I see it as a happy accident because we wouldn't have driven to Hurricane Ridge otherwise. It's worth it
Spectacular views of the mountains to the South and San Juan de Fuca to the north. Take the easy trails -- we saw deer and marmots.
Only one more weekend for winter skiing at Hurricane Ridge.
Reopens on April 30th for summer season
Beautiful drive up to a beautiful area! We saw deer and marmots on the trails and really enjoyed the sights!
