The Olympic Peninsula is one of the most beautiful places in the world. Perhaps that is why the majority of the Olympic Peninsula is Olympic National Park. Dotted along the park are small towns (Sequim, Port Townsend, Forks, Port Angeles, Neah Bay, La Push, Sekiu, Brinnon, Lilliwaup, Ocean Shores) and Pacific Northwest Indian reservations (Makah, Ozette,Quileute, Quinault, Hoh, Jamestown S'Klallam, Lower Elwha, Skokomish) that have their own unique personalities. Photographer Randall Tomaras captures the spirit of the Olympians as he goes from towns to reservations.
If you love the outdoors and down-to-earth people, the Olympic Peninsula is the place to live and work. It only takes a couple visits and you'll want to move there so you can enjoy the breath-taking views of the Olympic Mountains, the pristine lakes like Lake Crescent, the old barns and farms that provide organic food, the abundant wildlife such as the Roosevelt Elk, scenic lighthouses that protect the coast, an abundance of flowers, the uncommercialized beaches of the Pacific Ocean, the moss covered rain forest to Sunny Sequim that gets less than 17 inches a year. There is something for everyone. If you want more information on the Olympic Peninsula click here.
