Olympic National Park Backcountry permits are open today.
Enchanted Valley is inaccessible due to multiple road washouts. TBD if it opens at all this year. Sul Doc area still has some mid week availability. The Hoh and Grand Valley have plenty still available.
I'm planning a two night, newbie trip for September. Was going to do Enchanted Valley. Now I'm not sure. Might see if I can get Mt Margaret Wilderness again...

@intrepidhero If you have more time you can reach Enchanted Valley from the east or south, via Anderson Pass (I think) or Wynoochee Pass. That's a hike I wish I had done when I still could, going in via Wynoochee Lake and Pass and out Enchanted Valley. The first part is very lightly hiked and really wild, you'd see lots of wildlife, there and in the valley.

@GPJohnston good tip. I saw a couple of alternatives that look great, but probably put it beyond my newbies fitness levels.
