Dry Creek Trail

Olympic Peninsula near Lake Cushman. This trail was hammered by fall storms, with over 120 trees across the trail at one point. The Forest Service has mostly cleared the trail of the trees, and now WTA volunteers are needed to address some maintenance needs, including tread repair, drainage work, and some brushing further up the trail.
