Small Stream in an Ancient Forest

With some areas of Olympic National Park recently opened, I decided recently (late May 2020) to take a visit. I am glad I showed up early as there were few people there and all camping facilities remain closed further reducing the crowds. The few people I saw were polite in their willingness to socially distance. Although I visited a few iconic sights, I felt drawn to this small stream cascading through some old growth, moss and rocks. The water seemed as pure as one could hope to find anywhere, likely one of the benefits of taking the trail less traveled through a rain forest.
