After visiting my sister in Olympia WA, Leslie and I drove to the Skagit River area which is about 100 miles north of Seattle. The temperature was very cold in the mid teens. But the skies were clear and we saw quite a few eagles. We spent the night at the Skagit River Resort. Its rustic and our cabin was very nice. The restaurant was kind of medicore. I'm not sure how they screwed up blueberry pie but it was pretty bad.
The eagles were magnificant and the Eagle Watch volunteers were great. They are very helpful and have lots of information. There were 3-4 eagle watching stations and each had a spotting scope that was always pointed at an eagle. We also toured the fish hatchery where they breed several kinds of salmon plus steelhead trout.
