from Sol Due Hotel. Another route, and the most practicable in case a trip through themonument from north to south is desired, is by way of Port Angelesand the Elwha and Queniult, coming out by way of Queniult Lakeand Hoquiam. From Port Angeles to the Elwha River bridge onthe Lake Crescent road is a little under 11 miles, the morning stagereaching that point about 9.30 a. m. Horse or foot travel must thenbe resorted to over a mountain trail of more than ordinary steeppitches, exasperating ups and downs, and, on the Queniult side, somevery narrow and rather dangerous grades for a total through distanceto Queniult Lake of about 70 miles. A side trip to the Elwha-Queets divide at the base of Mount Olympus would add 12 miles 60 more. Other trail routes approach close to portions of the monu-ment, but do not lead through or into the highest and most scenicinterior, such travel being possible only on foot and by merely pickingones way along rough snowcapped ridges or through creek bottoms,

The Dosewallips route is accessible from Seattleas follows: Take steamship Potlatch from Seattle at 9 a. m., reaching 61 Brinnon about 2 p. m. A wagon road extends up the DosewallipsRiver 7 miles from Brinnon, and a quite satisfactory horse trail con-tinues to Sulphur Springs, 13 miles farther, which lands one within5 or 6 miles of the monument boundary. Travel beyond that pointis only possible on foot and with considerable personal exertion andrough going. At least 30 miles of very rough travel would be neces-sary to reach Mount Olympus, the highest point, 8,200 feet. The North Fork Skokomish route may be reached from Seattle asfollows: Take steamship Potlatch from Seattle at 9 a. m., arrivin
