Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument

Reviewed By StevoinMinnesoto - Cottage Grove, United States

Located about 40 miles east of the visitor center on winding roads, this is the only way to and from I-5 so you have to take the same road down as you took up. The views on this road are quite spectacular and you get glimpses of the volcano on your way up before finally ending up in different parking lots that offer unrestricted views that take your breath away when you realize this happened in just seconds. We hiked one of the trails that led to the last parking lot but only made it a bit more than halfway as the trail became very narrow with a tremendous drop off if you slipped on the sand. There was nothing to grab onto if you did slip and the bottom was probably over 100 feet down. That being said, we can highly recommend this Monument. It's spectacular.

Monarch Sculpture Park

Monarch Sculpture Park is a contemporary outdoor sculpture park and center for the arts. The grounds are open to the public daily from dawn to dusk. Located in the heart of the Thurston County prairie lands just a few miles south of Olympia, near Tenino, Washington, the park is designated as a primitive park with walk in, bike in, access from the Chehalis Western Trail. The park will continue its legacy of fine art and sculpture in nature. Monarch is a part of the Thurston County Bountiful Byways project. Its neighbors include the internationally renowned Wolf Haven and the new Great Wolf Lodge. Pets are welcome but must be leashed at and cleaned up after.

I just love this quirky sculpture park and I would have loved to have visited with children because many of the sculptures are musical ... bells being predominant... and you are encouraged to ring them. What child (or adult!) could resist! The one I liked best was a series of pipes which were 'played' by an old flipflop sandal! Although here are many weird/quirky (even disturbing) sculptures, the park itself is very peaceful (at least it was when we visited) and even spiritual (The Sacred Grove). There is walk in /bike in access from the Chehalis Western Trail. It is amazing that this park is free entry (donations welcomed) and the sculptures are donated by their artists. I will return.

Washington State Capitol

Reviewed By judithbackhaus

The WA State Capitol provides free capitol tours. The tour guides are knowledgeable and provide interesting and fun facts about the architecture of the building and historical events that have occurred there. Also, there is a great little gift shop that offers fun "Olympia" and state capitol items - great for birthday gifts for those who already have everything!

Wild Horse Monument

Reviewed By Rehsinup19 - Kent, United States

This was a fun stop on my way to Blue Lake. There are several horses and it is fun to view. This is only a short drive from the main road.
