点评:One of the best beach experiences in Washington is visiting the "Tree of Life" near Kalaloch Campground, just north of the Kalaloch Creek and Kalaloch Lodge. Here are Kalaloch Beach 2 you are on a sand beach with a clay bluff covered with trees holding the sand together against the erosion of the Pacific waves.
However, in one section of the bluff is a tree that defies both nature and logic. The bluff under this mature tree has been totally eroded to expose the roots of the tree, only supported while suspended in the air by roots growing into the bluff on each side. While weathered and stunted, the tree is fairly large and mature which makes it survival all the more interesting and amazing. You can actually walk under the tree and its roots.
I visited the tree on two occasions, first on an afternoon walk with friends in the sun and a cloudy morning walk by myself. It was great yet so different to see both times. In fact, the "Tree of Life" makes Kalaloch #2 one of the beaches you must see when visiting Olympic NP. It is a really unique and great thing to see on this stretch of beach within the National Park.

然而,在悬崖的一个部分有一棵树,它违背了自然和逻辑。这棵成熟树下的悬崖已被完全侵蚀,露出了树根,只有在悬挂在空中时,由生长在两侧悬崖上的根支撑。尽管风化和发育不良,这棵树相当大且成熟,这使得它的生存变得更加有趣和令人惊奇。您实际上可以在树及其根下行走。
我曾两次参观过这棵树,第一次是下午与朋友在阳光下散步,另一次是阴天的早晨独自散步。两次观看都很棒,但又很不同。事实上,“生命之树”使 Kalaloch #2 成为您游览奥林匹克国家公园时必去的海滩之一。在国家公园内的这片海滩上看到的这确实是一件非常独特和伟大的事情。
