Meet the mighty Elwah River out on the Olympic Peninsula. It’s not just another pretty place but also the sight of the world’s largest dam removal project.

This mighty river & its waterfall are called “Sol Duc” from their Quileute name, /só:liɬt'aqʷ/, meaning "sparkling waters.” The river flows from the Olympic Mountains to the Pacific out on the Olympic Peninsula in WA state. And though it’s not visible here the mist coming off these falls can saturate clothing quickly when standing close.

I bet y’all love a water element in your woods. If you’re drawn to flowing water you might be a “fluviophile.” The word origin for Middle English “fluvio” is the Latin fluvialis < fluvius, a river < fluere, to flow. “Phile” is Greek from philos for “dear, beloved.” This lovely flowing pool is on Barnes Creek in the lowland old growth forest near Crescent Lake, WA, out on the Olympic Peninsula.
