Quinault-Hoh: Kalaloch Beach won't open this winter for razor clams, but slight hope for spring digs - Biologists from the Quinault Indian Nation, Hoh Indian Tribe, state Fish and Wildlife and the national park conduct razor clam stock assessments each summer. This year's results showed the Kalaloch razor clam population to contain approximately half the number of clams found last year.
Hoh: Chance to see returning salmon a reason to visit Hoh Rain Forest - Road construction once affected the journey of the returning salmon, but a more fish-friendly culvert installed in the early 1990s helped salmon returning to Taft Creek. In some years, more than 2,000 coho complete their life cycle in this small creek.
