Olympic Coast - Rialto Beach

Thursday morning, Todd and I left the zoo in the truck and hiked Rialto Beach up to Hole in the Rock.  The beach here was mostly pebble rock with no trash.  The waves were steep and always crashing, you do not want to go swimming here.  Up near Hole in the Rock, seastacks stood above the crashing waves, tidal pools swayed within the striped rock.  Along the way, large woody debris protected the inland slopes.
This was out last hike as Todd was feeling the early stages of a nasty cold moving into his body.The top three photos are Todd's, the bottom 3 are mine.
