We'll be making our first trip to Washington in early August; so, I'm looking for some ideas for our family of four. The kids will be just short of 15 years old (twins).
Likely flying into Seattle mid-week and staying until middle of following week. Would like to settle into two places for about 4 days each instead of moving around each day. Looking for places that would have several interesting options to explore over those several days.
We are capable of doing day hikes of up to 5-10 miles, preferring loops. We do like high mountain vistas & lakes; although not entirely comfortable with exposure.
My first round of research seems to be steering us toward the Northern Cascades lakes area, Olympic National Park for the rainforest and beaches, or possibly kayaking in the San Juans.
Any favorites or suggestions?
