Oh, what's the situation with the greenery? It's gone currently?

I’m from WA but not sure what that means. I think they are just referring to the spring when all the deciduous trees get their leaves back and it’s all pretty and green and stuff

New Yorker and frequent Washington visitor, your guys winters are A LOT more green than ours. One of the reasons I love to visit Olympic in the winters :) even without the deciduous leaves the moss and evergreens are plenty green for me

Yeah I too am in Wa (Salish sea) and had this same thought… if anything the current time of year is greener, with all of the mosses and stuff like that in full effect. July and August is when it gets less green in my neck of the woods.

I think it's just covered in snow right now.

Nah we are still super green and we’ve had great snow this year so that bodes pretty well for rolling into the dryer months later :). It’s likely they mean spring when the deciduous trees become green again, or even the green coloration of the water as it moves faster in spring and becomes even more of a kayakers paradise.

It might be covered in snow right now. White Salmon is mountainous.
