Why not see Wynoochee?

About 3hrs away from Seattle, Wynoochee is a “why not?” Adventure.

“Have you camped at Wynoochee?” “no.” “WHY NOT!?” Ha. Corny “Dad Jokes” aside, this place is actually awesome. A dam, a lake, and a yurt. It sounds like the beginning of a bad joke but it’s anything but. Okay, I’m sorry. I know I said jokes aside, but seriously. You can tent camp if you want, yurt camp, and more. Definitely a to-do worthy.
