How can I make plans to visit Olympic National Park this summer?

I'm 18 and I really want to go as a graduation present, but no one wants to go with me. I thought about going by myself, but that seems boring. Would that be a good idea? Also, what are some things to do/see in the park, and would it be better to camp in the park or stay at a hotel? I've never been camping. I'm kind of a girly-girl when it comes to like bugs and heat haha But I really love the scenery there. It's beautiful!How can I make plans to visit Olympic National Park this summer?

Like everything else about Olympic, the weather is extremely variable, from season to season and place to place. Visitors should come prepared for a wide range of conditions. Rain gear and layered clothing are essential. Recorded Road and Weather Information (360) 565-3131



For your first adventure you may want to consider a hotel. I camp alone, but it's not for the faint hearted. If you do choose to camp alone, keep a canister of pepper spray with you and easy access at "all" times. Never assume that you are safe. Take a look at the following link to get an idea of what you will need to pack for a camping trip.
