This month's random fact may come as a shock to many people. There is a rainforest in North America! Sorry guys, South America does not have the only ones, not by a long shot. Washington State has the only temperate rainforest on the North American continent and one of the few in the world. It is also one of the largest.
Washington's Olympic National Park, specificially the Olympic Peninsula is home to the Hoh Rainforest. With giant trees, beaches of both sand and rock, huge monoliths, beautiful board walks and even an island that is a scared burial place for local native American tribes it is everything that one could dream up in a rainforest and so very much more.
So the next time you see someone crusading to save the Brazilian rainforest, you might enlighten them. American rainforests need saving too! Most people just don't know it is there.
