Oso Landslide Memorial This was the main goal of the ride. I'd been to the location several times before, but this was the first time I saw a full-on memorial park here...I had to duck under the shelters a few times because of some heavy showers passing through.

The Darrington Historical Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving and promoting the history of Darrington, a small town located in the northern part of Washington State. The society was founded in 2002 by a group of local volunteers who recognized the importance of preserving the town's rich cultural heritage.

The society maintains a museum that is open to the public, which houses a collection of historical artifacts, photographs, and documents that tell the story of Darrington from its early days as a logging town to the present day. The museum also features exhibits on local industries, such as mining and timber, as well as displays on the town's notable residents and events.

In addition to the museum, the Darrington Historical Society sponsors a variety of educational programs and events throughout the year. These include guided walking tours of the town, workshops on genealogy and historical research, and special exhibits and presentations on local history.

The society is run by a dedicated group of volunteers who work tirelessly to preserve and promote Darrington's cultural heritage. Membership is open to anyone who shares a passion for history and a desire to preserve the past for future generations.
