The Paddle:
Explore Lake Crescent-the largest, deepest, and most beautiful lake within Olympic National Park. At 12 miles long, 620 feet deep and surrounded by towering mountains, this glacially carved lake takes on an intense blue hue thanks to the crystal-clear water. Keep an eye out for bald eagles, among a variety of other birds in the area. Blacktail deer are often spotted grazing along the shoreline and rough-skinned newts swim up from the lakebed for a breath of air.

The Spruce Railroad Trail is a paved multi-use path that follows the old Spruce Railway route around Lake Crescent in Olympic National Park. This route features minimal elevation gain and almost no technical obstacles, making it a great sight-seeing ride. We will begin the ride at the East end of the trail off of East Beach Road. This tour will be about 2-2.5 hours long and the distance will vary somewhat based on the pace of the group.
