Thank you! It was a long one to edit so sure appreciate you watching it.

[@karenklamm4877]

BEAUTIFUL! I’m very glad you took your time to travel the triangle taking in the beauty of each leg. You two are adorable! Watching this adventure made me think, “There’s no place like home.” Thank you for not rushing through the journey.

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Well thank you. We definitely took our time enjoying this one. It had everything we love doing in one spot.

hello Liz and Charlie, what a treat to go along with you on this backpacking trip of yours. I enjoyed all of it. I was born in Morenci AZ, traveled a bunch, I came to Washington State in 1979 and have lived here ever since. I love this State it has such diverse areas, a Stunning coast line, Beaches, mountains, Rivers, Streams, Waterfalls, lakes, and flora and fauna, and Yes its smell is heaven to me. getting out doors here restores my soul even if its just a drive to point Defiance. Or right next door to where i live the Nisqually Delta. A lovely place to explore. Loved the small agates you found almost polished. loved the green stone, wondering if it came from Slitzeia. The petroglyphs photos were the best part. what a treat to see those. so well made. clearly inspired by the whales around here. I was near the water once night when I saw two orcas breach. it was quite a sight. I love all the tips and tricks you have to make what you do better. To Liz and her garbageraincoat. I get that, we were living here quite some time and when it rained I just took the scissors to a garbage bag. ha ha . never investing in a proper rain coat. I still do not have one, I love my umbrellas though.. Thanks for showing the way, and your photography skills are still the best Charlie., Welcome home. We love you and appreciate what you do.

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Thank you so much YT Mom! We just love the little stories you tell us. We can tell you've lived life pretty well. We still need to figure out how to follow your art page. We would love to see that.

[@JenniferLupine]

What a great adventure! I love that area along the coast! We’ve don’t that hike a few times as a day hike, would love to camp overnight sometime! I know what you mean about the fresh air and rain forest feeling, nothing quite like it! Fun exploring at the beach. Take care and have a great week! 😄🌲🌲🌲🥾🥾

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Thank you Jennifer! Nothing quite like our part of the world. Glad to share it with you.

What a great journey yous went on this time ! So many new things to see. The shot/view at 1:27 makes me want to run through my screen right into it. So so beautiful :) I love all the little things like Liz drinking colored water, lol, Then the sandwich that was missing something, lol and the spin at end. Thanks for taking us along :)

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Thank you for watching. I know it was a long one, but it was tough to leave any of it out.

[@ruthsmith6502]

Thank you very much for sharing your wonderful rockhounding adventures. You have captivated me for hours. Yes , I too am a Rockhound from Lake of the Ozarks Missouri. Be safe. See you again.

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Thank you so much for watching. We've been out of cell range for the last week so it's nice to come back to such a nice comment. You live in an are we're hoping to get to this winter.

[@donnabuckley5137]

Awesome adventure so beautiful Thankyou for sharing and at the end when you said I hope it doesn’t fall well I jump out of my chair I thought the bridge collapsed 🤣

[@TheAdventureCloset]

😂 haha! Sorry for the startle Donna!

[@mauihowey]

Great hike in the rain, so glad the sun was out in the morning for you….I absolutely love Washington state ( when it’s not raining) so much wilderness and beauty……fun video guys!

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Thank you! All that rain is what makes the state so beautiful.

[@Adventure2Anywhere]

Aww Liz you are so sweet! I love that shell, it’s beautiful! The pearlescent inside is stunning! And I love that you found a dinglehopper haha. Ok going to finish watching 😊

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Leave it to the Disney crew to notice the dinglehopper! Love it! Thank you very much. Hope you enjoyed the show!

[@Adventure2Anywhere]

We did! Just finished it and added Ozette Triangle to our “Places To Visit” list. That was a beautiful hike and you saw so much cool stuff! Brad’s a little persnickety about his water too so he felt your hesitation having to drink the water haha.

[@OneRockAtATime]

Thanks!

[@CityRockhounding]

What a beautiful video, we loved this video, especially how it started out, yes Charlie! What a beautiful hike, hearing the rain sound was so peaceful. That's so cool that of all the places you've been too, Washington is still your favorite, and I can see why. I love the all the trees and how old they are! I always try to touch the bigs ones and wonder whose been there. I love that connection with trees! Between trees and water, that's all we need in life, besides love. Beautiful view of the ocean, I'm sure that smell is amazing. Super cool seeing those big boulders way out there in the ocean! Good call setting your tent up back some, out od the direct wind from the ocean. Wow, the beach is amazing.... wow the whale bones are awesome, so cool, and interesting! Enjoy the fire, stay warm! Your right liz, walking into the sun is definitely a nice advantage, sea glass how cool. This world is amazing! So cool hearing the story about this area, thanks for sharing that Liz! Oh wow so cool seeing the old boat parts like that! Cool swings! I really enjoyed the different music you put in this one! Excellent shells and crab claw! Good tip about the the markers and hide tide! Can't wait to see what's ahead! I didn't know about you can't fly drones in a national forest, makes a lot of sense though.

[@CityRockhounding]

Didn't mean to hit send yet, still waiting!

[@CityRockhounding]

Wow, those petroglyph are so cool!!!! Wow you were so right Liz!!! We need to clean this world! Crazy with all the bones all over! Excellent rocks window, fantastic veiw from there, please tell me this was one of your pictures of the day, lol! Beautiful glass and agate, gorgeous! Wow that deer was so cool on the beach! Oh man that iron water, close your eyes! Beautiful eagles!!!! This video has it all, we'll done, wow! Me, Lily and Jameson enjoyed watching this on the TV! Jess is at a baby shower for her step sister. The water shouldn't taste too bad with the filters. On no, when the camera fell over! That sand dollar is awesome, nice amount of sea glass and colors! Your dance was my favorite part! Beautiful journey back through nature! I can't walk and drink, lol. What a beautiful adventure, loved this special so much!

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Dude, your comments are the best. We smiled and laughed reading this. Yes, I got so many pictures this trip. Every few feet there was something new. You guys are the best!

[@gregderksen1996]

What a beautiful hike! Reminds me of the west coast trail in BC. I’ve been to Washington state many times, and it’s very similar to southern BC. Coastal rainforest, mountains, desert etc. I am from Calgary Alberta and what you get here is what you’ll encounter in journeys through Montana. Can’t wait to see your adventures in the next chapter of the Adventure Closet.

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Thanks Greg! We are actually considering some Canadian adventures in the future. Might have to pick your brain for ideas.

[@camplapidary]

What an epic adventure! Took me three sittings to get it all in, but was worth it. :D

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Thank you so much for watching this hefty video. We had a lot of fun filming this one

[@moandjen]

We are from Ohio ❤️ we have dear friends that are in Washington at this very moment. They are actually from Washington but have lived in Ohio many years now. This was an awesome video! Those petroglyphs were amazing!! So happy y’all got to visit home and have such an amazing trip 🤗

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Thanks guys! Washington is a great place to be from. Looks like Ohio is too. I think the only state in this country we struggled to find beauty in is Texas so far, but we did find it.

[@moandjen]

Mark is not a fan of Texas but he loves New Mexico seeing how his grandparents were missionaries there most of his life. I can’t wait to see for myself!! I’ve only drove through a corner of Texas and I wasn’t amused 😂

[@TheAdventureCloset]

@@moandjen New Mexico was so amazing we went through twice! 😍

[@wilbondcajunrockhound5758]

those are some big trees , thats some wild trees all we have here is tame ones lol , wow what a first view of the ocean sweet , that was a pretty quick setup of camp . yep petroglyphs are always cool . that deer is your spiritual animal . im not sure about that water either , but i guess i would have to drink it . thats a lot of sea glass sweet , and some cool lil agates , nice trip looked like fun

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Thank you sir! Yeah we didn't have much of a choice on that water. It did taste better than it looked though. 😆

[@sandraabshire4923]

What an amazing coastline! Great video!

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Thank you! We sure do have the best place to call home.

So buautiful video guys!! Thanks for sharing!!

As always another great adventure. This is Rick and sky from Everson WA. Lots to see and do in this area. Maybe we will see ya out in the wood someday or rockhounding. Happy and safe adventures 💕

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Thanks Rick and Sky! We would love to do some rockhounding in the Everson area. Next time we're in the area we'll try and make a post.

[@JerrycanWanderers]

@@TheAdventureCloset ya,try the thousand puddles trail on the sf nooksack. Nice hike and lots of nice rocks. And bring a pan if you like a little bling.

[@huntingrocks]

This was an amazing video you guys , I want to come out and hike there so bad after watching this video .... I'm blown away by the whole video and just all the finds .... LOVE IT !!!

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Thanks Jeff. It was a pretty epic adventure which made it hard to cut it down to under 30 mins so a special it was. We really appreciate you watching. Are you feeling yourself again after getting sick? It took me months to get right after. Liz kicked it quick though.

[@huntingrocks]

I would say I am about 85-90% all right again Shari is 98% ... I am going to try to get out this week and get some video. Im glad I had some premade cause it kicked my butt I have not shot video in two weeks :(

[@TheAdventureCloset]

@@huntingrocks perfect timing if it had to happen then with all that video lined up. Glad you're up to getting back out.

[@Shannon_Michael_W.]

Awesome kinda like an Adventure Closet movie. Watched it all on one go 👍 So many great views of the ocean and all the trees looked amazing on the trail. And great rocks, beach glass, awesome shells. Cool petroglyphs. And the sand dollar. Lots of great hiking tips, on what supplies are needed for an adventure like this. The color of the water good thing the filter was around. Hmm 🤔 Even I wonder why all the small agates have best banding. Was so fun to watch an adventure in our home state, the area was totally different from where I live. Thanks Liz and Charlie.

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed! Washington just has so much variety of landscape. Yeah it is always the little agates that look the coolest. Not sure why either.

[@theoutdoordogandhikinggirl]

That looked awesome. Would love to go to the States one Day to hike some of the amazing trails. Those Cedar Trees were beautiful. We love te search for rocks, Shells etc. when we are at the beach.

[@TheAdventureCloset]

I think we'll make great friends! Glad you enjoyed the hike. It's a good one for sure.

[@theoutdoordogandhikinggirl]

@@TheAdventureCloset maybe Washington will go on the list 😊

[@TheAdventureCloset]

@@theoutdoordogandhikinggirl we think it's the most beautiful of all the states, but we're biased. 🤣

[@theoutdoordogandhikinggirl]

@@TheAdventureCloset well, I have seen some amazing video's from the mountains in Washington in which I instandly fell in love 😊

[@dustinfindsrocks]

All those whale bones were crazy! Charlie the bone you found was definitely a sacrum the center bone of pelvis attached to the spine. Probably from a raccoon or similar sized animal. Great video but it’s taking me a while to get through been super busy lately

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Bet you're right on a racoon. The beaches swarm with them at night. Appreciate you watching any bit of this vid. It is a long one. We didn't expect many to reach the end.

[@hoyo1465]

Awesome video! Never been to Washington but hope to one day 🙂. Born and raised in N .J., retired in FL. Got my van ready to go traveling 👍

Hello from the other side of the world! Thank you so much for watching and dropping us a note.

[@susanstone3588]

Born in Richland Washington, but have lived all over the state from East to West and North to South and Central Ellensburg. But I think I was always meant to live in Montana. My Grandparents homesteaded near Roundup Montana although they "starved out" and wound up in Washington.

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Montana is a magical place. We're actually hoping to go back very soon. We've always likened it to Western Washington without the ocean and crowds. I can see why Montana would feel homey to you.

[@RagnarRocks]

Washington truly is the best! I've been to 38 states and haven't found a better one. I'm afraid to visit Alaska though because I don't think I'll want to come back!

[@TheAdventureCloset]

We were just watching your cat vid! Yeah Alaska is on the bucket list. I like the remoteness and you can truly off grid up there. The grizzlies would worry me a bit but I suppose you'd just get used to carrying up there just to go take a leak in the outhouse.

[@RagnarRocks]

@@TheAdventureCloset Yeah, up there you would even consider that bear to be your food for most of the year. Being a true natural vegan up there would be almost impossible and crazy expensive I would imagine!

[@TheAdventureCloset]

@@RagnarRocks The meat up there would probably be healthier anyway, but yeah getting variety would be tough.

[@dustinfindsrocks]

I cannot walk and drink at the same time either 😂

[@outdooradventureswithfayde6832]

Had to watch that one in three parts, but I watched every minute of it. First, to answer Liz' question where everyone is from, I am from Wisconsin. I lived the greater part of my life in Illinois about an hour and a half SW of Chicago in a small town. Recently moved back to Wisconsin with my girlfriend and we've been here going on our 3rd year. We live less than a mile from Lake Michigan. Wisconsin is wayyy better than Illinois in nearly every way. Most of Wisconsin state parks and some other choice parks have to pay to park, just a heads up. Whereas Illinois most do not have to pay. But Wisconsin parks are much cleaner and better maintained. Wisconsin is very beautiful, especially up North. Michigan is very pretty too. To answer the other question, yes I have been to Washington. I was not a fan of Seattle. I'm sure it was nice at one time, but not so much now. Other than that I would say its very beautiful, and definitely near the top of most beautiful states. I prefer Oregon between the two. Maryland and Virginia are up there too. But, nothing holds a candle to Hawaii.....lol, maybe a bit outside of Opals capability at the moment. I am definitely putting that hike on my list! That was an excellent video! The petroglyph were a very cool surprise. So many amazing beach finds including all the rocks, bones and shells. Great camping spots. Those views were mystical! Really loved all the trees. And thank you for showing all the interesting fungi. The deer looked lonely. You were kind to it and sensed your good nature. 🙂 That water looked interesting, lol, but I'm sure it tasted ok after everything. The beach leg was my favorite. Really enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing. Bye now

[@TheAdventureCloset]

Hey Shawn! Thank you for watching our entire duzy of a video. We weren't sure how many would make it through. 😅 Wisconsin is on our radar. We'll let you know when we get there someday and we can hopefully go flip some rocks together or do a little hiking.
