3. The Hoh Valley, Washington
Washington’s Olympic Peninsula is home to some of the most undeveloped national park land in the United States. The picturesque beauty of this virgin temperate rain forest, the largest of its kind in North America, is also considered to be the quietest place in the United States. Is it any wonder, then, that it is also one of the largest areas in the continental United States without roads?!

+ add your ownso pretty. all of them (except maybe the last one)
Thank you Katie for a glimpse of these most wonderous places that remain untouched. I would like to see the Hoh Valley in Washington State., but without any roads it would not be possible. It reminds me very much of the Great Bear Rain Forest of Southern British Columbia. There are also no roads, but there are many rivers, channels, streams and fjords. The growth is as lush, tropical, and velvety.
Beautiful nature! I am surprised these places still exist untouched by humans...
Chciałabym zobaczyć wszystkie te miejsca, no może z wyjątkiem tego sztucznego laboratorium.
BLISS!
thank you :)
Beautiful places envoking bliss. They like wild animals should only be viewed from photographs i love quite which is hard to come by
thank you for sharing
Beatiful but it helps that little to no humans live in these places...otherwise it would be destroyed!!!
Love to visit all!!!
