- Driving along the coast of Lake Crescent on June 8, 2021. This is part of Olympic National Park in Washington, USA.
Olympic National Park is a United States national park located in the State of Washington, on the Olympic Peninsula. The park has four regions: the Pacific coastline, alpine areas, the west-side temperate rainforest, and the forests of the drier east side. Within the park there are three distinct ecosystems, including subalpine forest and wildflower meadow, temperate forest, and the rugged Pacific coast.
President Theodore Roosevelt originally designated the park as Mount Olympus National Monument on March 2, 1909. The monument was re-designated a national park by Congress and President Franklin Roosevelt on June 29, 1938. In 1976, Olympic National Park was designated by UNESCO as an International Biosphere Reserve, and in 1981 as a World Heritage Site. In 1988, Congress designated 95 percent of the park as the Olympic Wilderness.
Lake Crescent is a deep lake located entirely within Olympic National Park in Clallam County, Washington, United States, approximately 17 miles (27 km) west of Port Angeles on U.S. Route 101 and nearby to the small community of Piedmont. At an official maximum depth of 624 feet (190 m) it is officially the second deepest lake in Washington (after Lake Chelan). Unofficial depth measurements of more than 1,000 feet (300 m) have been rumored in the region for years, although this figure has recently been proven false after a lake-wide bathymetric survey was performed from 2013 to 2014 by Eian Ray and Jeff Enge. The results of this survey showed the maximum depth as being 596 feet. Using GIS statistical analysis, this survey also showed the lake contains approximately 0.5 cubic miles of fresh water.
Lake Crescent is known for its brilliant blue waters and exceptional clarity, caused by a lack of nitrogen in the water which inhibits the growth of algae. It is located in a popular recreational area which is home to a number of trails, including the Spruce Railroad Trail, Pyramid Mountain trail, and the Barnes Creek trail to Marymere Falls. The Spruce Railroad Trail follows the grade of what was once the tracks of a logging railroad along the shores of the lake. Following this trail on the north side of the lake, one can find the entrance to an old railroad tunnel as well as "Devils Punch Bowl", a popular swimming and diving area.

i used to work for a department of natural resources up there I love the area one of my favorite places in Washington state to visit
It’s absolutely beautiful. Was my first time visiting Washington state. It did not disappoint. I can’t wait to go back. You’re lucky to have spent a lot of time in the area. Thank you for watching!
Which camera are you using is it a mobile phone
GoPro Hero 7 Black was used in this video
Not 4k
Yeah it is. 2160x60. Have to make sure your device allows playback in that resolution. RUclips does compress some. But I definitely filmed, published, and uploaded in 4K at 60 FPS. It’s playing 4K for me now, so check your devices settings. I apologize if you’re unable to view it in that resolution. Some devices won’t allow it. Make sure you’re selecting the 2160x60 playback option. Thanks for watching!
are you high by methamphetamine or heroin? 4k and higher resolutions videos take hours or even days to process
laugh out loud!
