Reading the Elwha (LARCH 498/598) is a field course offered during the University of Washington Summer 'B' term. The Elwha River watershed is on the Olympic Peninsula of Washington, and is the location of two recent dam removal projects. Through daily hikes and in-field meetings with local scientists, land managers, and tribal members the students engage in an ongoing dialogue investigating the idea of Nature and our evolving ethical relationships to the environment.
