Postcard - Hoodsport, Washington

"Hoodsport, Washington. A bustling community of activity. Gateway to Hood Canal, Lake Cusman and the Mighty Olympics -- where the mountains meet the sea. Mt. Stone, The Brothers and Mt. Jupiter stand guardian over all."

1970s?

Hoodsport was also home to Morty Comix # 2402.

Postcard - Hood Canal, Washington

"Hood Canal Floating Bridge. An outstanding engineering achievement of Washington State's Department of Highway's connecting Kitsap Peninsula and Olympic Peninsula. The bridge is 20 feet above the water and 7,131 feet long. It cost $26,630,000."

This has to be pre-1977, since the Dept. of Highways changed to the Dept. of Transportation in that year. The west half of this bridge sank during a storm in 1979.

Postcard - Brinnon, Washington

"Dosewallips State Park. Located at the foot of the Olympics on scenic Hood Canal is this campers' paradise. The fresh Dosewallips River skirts the campground, and beautiful Mt. Constance overlooks it in the distance."

Looks to be from the 1970s. Shortly after graduating high school four of us went camping at Mt. Constance and were frequently visited by a persistent mountain goat with a crooked horn and an attitude that anything hanging around loose was his to take.
