PNWRich: Elk Lake to the Hoh Ranger Station
This is the route back from Elk Lake on my Elk Lake to Mount Olympus track. The way in/out is LONG and mostly flat - 12.4 miles worth of flat before the climb starts up to the lake. We camped at Martin Creek, which is the last place where you can have a campfire and there is better water.
