Caring for the Olympic Wilderness
 
Last year, there were nearly 40,000 overnight visitors to the Olympic Wilderness and countless day visitors. If we treat Olympic with respect, we can preserve its wildness and grandeur for future generations.

Many visitors do not realize the impacts their actions can have on the character of the wilderness, on wildlife and on other visitors. Please help take care of your wilderness by practicing Leave No Trace camping and using proper food storage techniques to protect park wildlife.

Did You Know?
That endemic Olympic snow moles are scurrying beneath this blanket of snow? Olympic National Park's Hurricane Ridge is blanketed with over ten feet of snow for most of the winter, providing water for summer and protection for snow moles in winter.
