Dispatches from the Field: 7 Images of Olympic National Park

Images from my first ever visit to Olympic National Park in the Pacific Northwest.

By: Mayson + Save to a List

During my recent visit to the Pacific Northwest for the first time I had the opportunity to visit Olympic National Park. Growing up and living in the American Southwest it is hard to imagine that a place like this could even exist. While enormous, the park is the greenest place I have ever seen and has the densest biomass I have ever witnessed. Exploring and photographing this place was a truly magical and mind blowing experience.
