Omg that made me tear up to see the whales breach 🥹🥹
What month is this?
please show your face less.
very nice tour
You missed Chinook Pass and Tipsoo Lakes??
You missed Sol Duc Falls??? You missed one of Olympics monumental scenes.
Thank you so much such an amazing and detailed video.
Gorgeous! And the countryside is nice too
Whales are so playful!😂😂😂
What month did you visit?😊
What month did you go? We are planning a trip for this summer and would love recommendations on when to go!
People should honestly just put their phones down and enjoy the experience with the whales. What they will capture isn't going to be some amazing national geographic clip and it won't remotely capture the experience. Just put your phones away folks and experience it as much as possible for an amazing memory.
What time of the year did you visit?
Lol it's WHEN AT CHEE river …I get it ..some of our names are hard to pronounce. It happens all the time 🙃
YAY! #1 is my stomping grounds.
So glad you got to enjoy the lovely scopes of Port Townsend!!!!!
This was very helpful! I am visiting soon to see some family and can’t wait!
What time of year did you visit Washington?
Loved the video! If you had a limited amount of time and had to pick between Mt Rainier and North Cascades parks, which would you pick? Looking for something with a very easy hike, and low elevation elderly-friendly 🙂
What time of year was this?
What time of year were you there?
How beautiful ❤

Northern Cascades National Park – least visited, underrated, less talked about but a hidden gem ❤

Awesome video thanks a lot ❤
What month of the year did you do this road trip through Washington State?
What was the name of the taproom in Yakima? Was it self-Serve?
Ryan you absolutely MUST go to Priest Lake Idaho in the Pacific Northwest.
Also stop by in Spokane wa. Gonzaga University. Home of the Zags. Bing Crosby school and also John Stockton.
You got to ride whales!!!
What is estimated cost?
I enjoyed your video and am planning a similar trip. What month and any specifics of the month did you do this? Thanks!
To the person reading this: Even though I don’t know you, I wish you the best of what life has to offer ❤
I watched this whole thing then got sad when I realized I’m going to Washington D.C and not Washington State 😂😂😂 I have to go here!!! Thanks for the video 🥹❤️
❤🇺🇸👍🏻
hey 🙂 thank you for the nice video. in what month did you travel?
We camped around there, we rode motorcycles up to hurricane ridge. What a beautiful ride. Love your video of the Beautiful Washington State. 👌👍 It's pronounced Wa nat chee.😂cheese. You didn't see Eastern Washington? 😢 Should have gotten your chowder in the bread bowl yummy. Ivars fish and chips, are really yummy also but you have to share them with the seagulls, they're really good at catching them.😂
I never ever ever ever ever think of Washington for some reason to visit and literally had no idea. It's like Canada, it's like Switzerland it's like Colorado, my favorite place on earth and it's like Montana. It's beautiful, and why didn't I think to go visit there too, the only thing maybe stopping me is the Seattle. I am.
Not I repeat, not a city person. I really truly. I don't even know if I'd wanna visit cities. I just don't like cities. I'm more of a country. Mountain nature chair animals, lake streams waterfalls birds and just beautiful outdoors person. I don't need a city to destruct my view. I hate citieast except for Australia. Brisbane is beautibut.
Very nice video I will definitely have to visit.
Leavenworth looks like Banff, Canada.
My Great Granpa was on the first expedition that crossed the Olympic mountains in the winter of 1889/1890 called the Press Expedition and they went through Hurricane Ridge. The book about it is probably in the gift shop up there. his name was John Sims.
When were you in Washington, early September? Thank you for all of the tips! We’re going 9/7 for 10 days – wondering about weather.
HI, may i know what time of the year was the whale watching?
Looks like you had great weather! What time of year did you visit?
I was born and raised in Washington State.
What month of the year did you make your trip?
WOW! Gorgeous video! And you've convinced me. I'm a Nebraskan who loves the southeast coast (FL, GA, AL, MI, etc) and I've never been out west. I saw one picture of North Cascades that took my breath away, then did a search for visiting northern WA. Yours was the first video to pop up, and I'm BLOWN AWAY. Next trip will definitely involve North Cascades and Leavenworth (I want that pretzel!!). Thank you 🙂
Great video and thank you for posting! During which month did you make this trip to Washington?
