Abstract

Just north of the Hoh River on the western Olympic Peninsula in Washington State lies a unique wetland called Crowberry Bog. What it lacks in size – approximately 12 hectares – it more than makes up for as the southernmost and only documented raised bog in the western contiguous United States. In recognition of its distinctiveness, the bog was designated as a state Natural Area Preserve by the Washington Department of Natural Resources (DNR) in October of 2019. The 95-hectare preserve protects the bog as well as parts of the surrounding forested area.
