"I would definitely recommend this trip to a friend."
We went up the Quinault I believe to get to Royal Basin in oh around 1968. My brother went there in the winter once going up the Dosey and branching off. The roads were weird then to get to the trail head on the Quinault and it probably just as weird now.
