pov: you live in seattle… 💘✨

Magical sunset from the top of Mt. Storm King ⛰️💘✨

9pm sunsets are officially back and I couldn’t be happier. This was from a few days ago, and it honestly feels like my favorite season is just starting.

Long days in the mountains, the sun hitting my face at 9pm, that golden light that makes everything feel unreal… this is the kind of summer I live for.

So would you hike 4 miles for this view? 🤔

Because I would… over and over again. This was the first hike I did when I visited Olympic National Park for the first time, and ever since then, I keep coming back and it still leaves me speechless every single time 🥹

But fair warning… this hike is HARD 😅 You literally gain 2,000 ft of elevation in just 2 miles, and there are a lot of exposed sections too, so definitely keep that in mind before doing this hike!

📍Mt. Storm King, Olympic National Park

Summer in Washington State is UNBELIEVABLE 😭💘✨
