Murhut Falls

Off into the woods we went...
Ready to explore a new spot...



On what would be our very last foray into the Olympic Mountains, we decided to take a side trip to see Murhut Falls. It's always fun setting off for a new destination, each turn in the trail showing you something you've never seen, or somewhere you've never been before. The hike into the falls was pretty, and the falls themselves turned out to be breathtaking. We were glad we'd decided to come see them!


The beautiful falls


This daredevil insisted on the need to see them up close


Photo Op: Chilling on the fallen log at the bottom of the falls




And checking out the cave behind the waterfall


It was quite steep with a sheer drop off between the trail and the falls, so the girls and I decided to enjoy them from a safe distance instead. Though Kate made it clear that if she were older she'd definitely be climbing down there with her dad...I don't doubt it one bit :)
