Hey everyone. My husband and I are trying to plan a trip this summer that is a little more extensive/fun/special than the 1 night airbnb getaways in Western WA that have been our go-to during Covid. I'm hoping for some ideas! Here are some criteria:
- Within a few days drive of Seattle--OR, Northern CA, ID, MT, WY, BC...
- Doable in 7-9 days
- This will mostly be an "outdoor" trip. We're pretty covid cautious so good restaurants, museums, etc aren't a priority right now. (but we can handle with driving through/stopping for supplies in "less covid cautious" places )
- Good fishing (obviously!), particularly with a great guide outfit that we could spend a day with and then fish on our own a bit as well.
- Not completely overrun by tourists in the summer (this is a big one!!!)
- Cool geological, paleontological, botanical, zoological or otherwise natural attractions. My husband tolerates fishing but wouldn't enjoy a trip that's all about fishing (unfortunately ). I'm a science teacher and he is a biogeochemist turned gardener so we spend a lot of time birding, tidepooling, and hunched over trying to identify wildflowers.
