Here’s Looking at You: The Olympic National Park wildlife checklist includes cougars, bears, eagles, deer, and many more friends of the forest. (PhotoDisc)

The 6,000-foot-high Grand Ridge Trail is perfectly balanced between sky and sea. For 11 miles (round-trip), you’ll be treated to mind-blowing views of the Pacific Ocean, the island of Victoria, the Canadian Cascades, and 10,778-foot Mount Baker.
