Located along the northern border of the Olympic
National Park, Crescent Lake, just a short drive from Port Angeles and Sequim,
is a marvel of glacier activity. Steep mountain ridges rise up almost 1,500 feet
over the lake, while the bottom of its frigid depths sits 24 feet below sea
level, making Crescent Lake incredibly deep. When one stands on the shores of
Crescent and sees just how close the other shoreline is, it is hard to believe
that at its center the water goes down for over 600 feet.
The Moments In Time Natural Trail is a 1/2-mile loop that weaves its way through
old homestead sites, along the banks of Crescent Lake, and through old-growth
lowland forest. Massive cedars and Douglas firs tower overhead, some with
diameters over 35 feet and rising up offer two hundred feet from the forest
floor. The trail is well marked and surprisingly quiet and offers several places
to sit and reflect on the incredible wonder of this part of the country.
