Woodard Bay Conservation Area
Olympic Peninsula
updated 3 days ago
Woodard Bay Conservation Area appears to be in good condition, with no snow as of November 7. The road is suitable for all vehicles, and bugs were not a significant issue for recent visitors. However, hikers should be aware of downed trees in multiple sections of the forest trail, though they are described as easily passable. A past report from August 25 also noted no bugs and a generally good trail condition, though it highlighted a concerning incident of car window break-ins in the parking lot, advising visitors to leave valuables out of sight.

Crisp, foggy day. The tree down was on the forest path section. It was navigable--sort of like climbing a stile. The old access road was barrier free. Ghostly photo ops and a lovely hush.
