The Sol Duc resort has a modern facility for bathing and soaking in the mineral waters from the hot springs.

The Sol Duc river begins its journey where the Olympic mountains at just above five thousand feet near High Divide. At this location water trickles down from the forest canopy into rivulets which then merge into larger streams as it flows down mountain. The route in many places steepens and the water plunges down a hanging pathway over areas carved by ice age glaciers.

These are the head waters of the Sol Duc, where large old growth trees live, trees that are giants in the plant kingdom, some of the largest trees in the world. These trees include: Alaska Cedar (124 feet), Englemann Spruce (179 feet), Coast Douglas fir (281 feet), Grand Fir (251 feet), Mountain Hemlock (152 feet), Sitka Spruce (191 feet), Western red-cedar (123 feet), and Western hemlock (174 feet).

When one of these giants topples over, the course of the Sol Duc can be changed to a new location, or it could create a large pool which can provide habitat for beaver, mink, river otter, salamanders, Coho salmon in July, steelhead and cutthroat trout. Too, as the river flows down from the head waters, it carries with it tumbling rock and abrasive sediments that also can change the course of the river. All of these changes add to the river′s rhythm and temperament, but overriding temperament of the river is vigorous even though often, gentleness is it′s appearance.

Time is what this river has as a friend and change is it′s constant companion.
