Wet winters,
warm, dry summers make this Olympic region a wonderland of water, lush-forests and
recreation
By George McCormick-Credits to the Forks Forum
Forks Washington, with the only stoplight along a 163-mile stretch of Highway 1O1, is
also the vital hub to what residents call "The REST of
the Olympic Peninsula" - a world of recreational and scenic opportunities. With its
surrounding scenic beauty, the Forks area is renowned on the North Olympic Peninsula's
West End for its abundant winter rainfall (162.14
inches in 1997), warm and sunny summers, logging heritage and myriad places to hunt, fish
and hike. Within a short distance of Forks are sparkling, lakes, pristine ocean beaches,
ancient temperate rain forests, mountain glaciers and rushing rivers with the Peninsula's
best steelhead and salmon runs. The rural communities of Clallam Bay-Sekiu and Neah Bay
can be found on State Route 112 along the Strait of Juan de Fuca, north of Forks. To Forks'
west is the Quileute Indian village of La Push, on the Pacific Coast. to the south is the
Hoh Rain Forest, a Olympic National Park attraction.
