Day Four: A Rainbow at Sol Duc Falls - Olympic National Park
After Marymere Falls, we made our way to Sol Duc Hot Springs. The waterfall at Sol Duc is supposedly the most photographed spot in Olympic National Park. We got there too late to get good shots of the falls. The sun was high in the sky and direct light was falling across the river. Luckily, the bright sun had the fortuitous side effect of making a rainbow!
You'd think that the mid-day sunlight would have been my biggest photographic challenge, but in this case, the crowds of people enjoying the falls was a much bigger issue. You can't tell from the photos, but there was easily a dozen people enjoying the falls at the same time we were. I had to be very patient and strategic to avoid getting other tourists in my shot.
The Sol Duc Falls Trail starts out right past the campground. The falls are an easy .8 mile walk from the parking lot.
