About

The story

Mount Hopper is a 6,120-foot-elevation (1,865-meter) mountain summit located in the Olympic Mountains, in Jefferson County of Washington state. It is situated in Olympic National Park and the Daniel J. Evans Wilderness. Precipitation runoff from the mountain drains south into the North Fork Skokomish River, and north into the Duckabush River. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises over 3,700 feet (1,128 m) above the North Fork Skokomish River in 1.65 mi (2.66 km), and 2,320 feet (707 m) above Crazy Creek in one mile (1.6 km). The nearest higher neighbor is Mount Steel, 1.96 mi (3.15 km) to the west-northwest.
