Related, there's a cool transition if you hike up the Greenwater river (starting at the town of Greenwater, heading towards FS70) there's a cool transition where the geology switches from Osceola mud to the more typical Cascade foothill geology (about half a mile from the White river).


its a real geologic zoo around there


It really is a zoo (and the whole of Western Washington is generally). If you're interested in the topic, I really enjoyed https://www.amazon.com/Roadside-Geology-Washington-Marli-Mil...


Love the geologic zoo!

I refer to botanical gardens as 'botanical zoos' as well


I believe zoo is short for "zoological garden," but of course it's taken on additional meanings. Still, one occasionally hears the term "zoological and botanical garden."
