7/26/2022 Salt Creek Recreation park. WWII Bunker.

This is a county park located west of Port Angeles, WA just outside of Olympic National Park.  The park has campsites located on the water facing Victoria Canada.  It is a great location for anyone with a small RV.  Some of the sites have electric and water, but no sewer.  There is a sandy beach within walking distance.  


We went there on a whim just to check it out and do some hiking.  What we didn’t realize is that it apparently was a WWII fort with artillery that is no longer on site.  We stumbled across an old WWII bunker while a trail that started to make us curious.  As you can see we did explore the bunker (even though the signs said to stay out).  I was surprised at how a county park hid the remains of an old hidden fort along the water bordering Canada.  No mention that it was once a fort.  A hidden gem for sure and an ideal campground for those in the know.


Oh and this was another 7 mile hiking day for us.  Time to relax :-)
