When it is Raining, Get Outside

Welcome to Winter in the Pacific Northwest

The rain is coming down in the Pacific Northwest in sheets, for days, and is unrelenting. The grey skies threaten to send us into hibernation. We sit inside, in our warm houses, threatening to sit on the couch until spring. It’s winter here and, well, it’s depressing at times.

If you are willing to brave the weather, grab your umbrella and raincoat, then venture out the Green River Gorge or the lower Green-Duwamish River and step into an otherworldly riverscape.

Camping at Kanaskat State Park

Camping at Kanaskat State Park

Kanaskat State Park is located approximately 37 miles southeast of Seattle Washington.  It is located at the east end of the Green River Gorge at the base of the Cascade foothills.  It has a large campground and along the river is a day use area with covered picnic areas and three miles of trails.  It also is a popular launch point for experienced whitewater kayakers and rafters who consider the Green River Gorge one of the top whitewater runs in Washington state.
