The High Divide

From the Seven Lakes Basin turnoff, it is a short mile to the pass where you cross the High Divide and head down, down down into the Hoh Valley.

Looking northwest at row after row of the Olympic Mountains

A big marmot was not very shy

A ridge that cuts off from the High Divide

Mt. Olympus, front and center, from the High Divide

We were heading down into the Hoh Valley, but another trail stays high along the High Divide from the pass

I did a side hike a short distance to a nice spot on the ridge

Back to Seven Lakes Basin or continue to Down, down, down to the Hoh
