Top 10 Pacific Northwest
I once picked up a travel book on the Pacific Northwest and was surprised at their top 10 attractions. There was nothing listed from Washington State except the Burke Museum of Natural History in Seattle – huh? Have you ever been to Washington? So I decided to create my own list, and I admit I may be biased. (All such lists are subjective.)
#1 – Olympic National Park, Washington
#2 – Oregon Coast
#3 – Mt. Rainier, Washington
#4 – Columbia Gorge, Oregon
#5 – Seattle, Washington
#6 – Skagit Valley, Washington
7 – Victoria, British Columbia
#8 – Port Townsend, Washington
#9 – Sequim, Washington
#10 – Astoria, Oregon
Now that I put the list together, I see how hard it is to choose only 10! Vancouver, British Columbia should be on the list, but I haven’t been there in years and have no current pictures. And many other charming towns deserve a spot including Oregon’s Florence and Washington’s Bellingham, home of my alma mater. But I have chosen what I have chosen and that’s my final answer for this post, which was inspired by #Sunday Stills, 10’s

I’m in awe of your photography, Susanne! I’ve only visited a few of those places, but our state is filled with amazing spaces and places! Wonderful top 10!
Thank you so much, Terri! I am in awe of your photography!! I knew at least 5 that needed to be on the list, but many of the others were up for grabs! 🙂 Hard to choose only ten!
Perfect! The Pacific Northwest is gorgeous. I have been to all of these spots, most on the back of a motorcycle!
Wonderful! It was hard to choose only ten! 🙂
This is a GREAT list of places to enjoy in the Pacific Northwest! So much natural beauty plus fun cities and town too…a “wish list” for all!
Thanks so much, John! It was hard to whittle it down to 10! 😀
Looking forward to part 2, and 3, and…
