Sunrise Point at Hurricane Ridge

We drove up to Hurricane Ridge at Olympic National Park and did a short hike combining the High Ridge Trail out to Sunrise Point and returned by the Cirque Rim Trial to the Overlook and returned via the Visitor Center and the parking area back to the car. About 1.5 miles with 200 ft of gain.

Heading up the High Ridge Trail to Sunrise Point

We were above the clouds, so could not see Puget Sound, or the San Juan Islands, but we did see Glacier Peak in the far distance.

Mt Olympus and the Blue Glacier were in view to the southwest
