I've met some climbers from there in Leavenworth, they mostly climbed at the Elwha wall which is steep sandstone sport crag accessed by walking across the (to be removed) Elwha dam.

 

The new olympic climbers guide covers that crag and a few other developing areas...pictures make it look pretty cool.

A lot of pumpy bolted routes; makes for a good workout right next to the river. Approach: park at the dam and walk across the bridge. 2min. You can grab a copy of the guidebook at Port Book and News in town.

cool, thanks. we're gonna be over there for a couple of days, so i'm excited to check it out.

 

btw, what's gonna happen to access when the dam gets removed?

 

If you bump into Kevin there(he'll be the guy with the grey beard doing solo laps, making the 5.10's look like .6's.), ask him about the future access. He knows his way around.
