The tree of life is interesting!

[@WanderfulRevolution]

It’s crazy! Almost feel sorry for it just hanging on for dear life!!!!

[@j6sj7]

Such beautiful country and I love getting to enjoy it like this without having to swat mosquitos! Those big old trees are really wanderful. thanks for sharing. -Burt in NJ

[@lornamackenzie2525]

The rain forest is beautiful. The ancient trees are so majestic. Beautiful falls. The Tree of Life is stunning.💞

[@WanderfulRevolution]

It’s such a medical and special place! The greenery! The falls! It’s like looking back in time!

[@amymcdonald7750]

So green & mossy! I can relate re: mosquitoes - ugg. Keep an eye out for Sasquatch!

[@WanderfulRevolution]

Love all the moss!!!! We had no idea they would be this bad… but I guess it’s a rainforest so it makes sense!

[@catH727]

The carpet of mosses is fabulous. That’s a cool tree, I thank you for backtracking so we can see it.

[@WanderfulRevolution]

We love all the moss!!! I was only about an hour roundtrip and we’ve been wanting to see the tree! So we figured we had to!

[@Debbie_T_FL]

Awesome video! Those trees are really massive, and being able to see all the roots is really cool. Especially the one growing on the stump and the Tree of Life. Love the waterfalls. Thanks for taking us along!

[@WanderfulRevolution]

Thank you so much! This area is magical! I wish we could just sit next to the waterfalls all day! Thanks for coming along!

[@dianehughes1968]

Oh wow! This was so gorgeous! Thanks for sharing.

[@WanderfulRevolution]

Thanks so much Diane! It’s a gorgeous place!

[@TheAverageTourist]

Wow the scenery here is so beautiful! Love the rainforest vibes. And Sandy - I'm currently wearing that same shirt - great taste 😂 👍 The beach area looked really pretty and the big cedar was cool.

[@WanderfulRevolution]

Hahah! I had to rewatch the video to see what shirt I was wearing! 🤣

[@FrontiersmanAdventures]

Very cool shots of the waterfall. I have only been to that part of the country once, and that was in 1982. I've got to get back up there someday! I agree...I am sure Sasquatch is out there! Great cinematography. Wow! That is a big tree! Awesome waterfall. That is another great waterfall. I am inspired to get there some day. Wow....the roots on that tree are awesome. Cool tree. Oh my what a cedar tree. I agree that is one impressive tree. Great video! Glad I found your channel!

[@WanderfulRevolution]

Thank you so much! This area is so beautiful I hope our camera does it justice!!! So glad to have you along.., hopefully you’ll be able to make it back here and relive some memories!

[@sherriweber7105]

Loved that tallest tree!

[@WanderfulRevolution]

It’s so massive! We were in awe!!!

[@sherriweber7105]

What a nice beach and learning. So about the Sitka tree was great. I love learning about stuff and things like that.

[@WanderfulRevolution]

We love interesting facts too and the tree is stunning!!!

[@sherriweber7105]

@@WanderfulRevolution It definitely is!

[@sherriweber7105]

The scenery is beautiful and so is the rainforest. Did it rain in the rainforest? Lol! Love those waterfalls and was glad you found someone who said you can get in with your size van. Pretty nice!

[@WanderfulRevolution]

It actually did rain while we were there even though this is the dry part of the year there! Thank you so much Sherri! It’s good to have you along

[@Waterboyofsuperman]

That second set of falls looks kinda like bunch falls.

[@WanderfulRevolution]

I think that’s the name? We weren’t exactly sure which ones were which and didn’t have a cell signal!

[@Shelly-in-Tampa]

That tree was creepy (The one taking possession of the dead one.) Wow! You really found greenery and the 🦟 🦟🦟 mosquitos.

[@WanderfulRevolution]

It’s like tree zombies!!!! They’re called nurse logs as we would later learn coming up in the next video! Too bad the trees don’t eat mosquitos!!!

[@Chris-ut6eq]

#13 - Who needs pants when you are exploring! Looks like the Quinaultimate park! Did you go Sasquatch hunting?

[@WanderfulRevolution]

Unfortunately the National Park Service says you need pants… besides the swimsuit waterfall water shoot is for our other site! 😂 no Sasquatches to be found unfortunately! We may have talked them into the photo shoot!!!
