Greypeace — the non-profit society dedicated to the preservation and
development of twisty, paved roads — takes special pride in this DH. Through
shrewd negotiation, the organization hammered out a historic agreement with
the Washington State Department of Transportation. Greypeace agreed not to
protest the re-alignment, re-engineering and straightening of the DH’s eastern
40 per cent, which runs through populated, flattish farmland anyway. In
exchange, WSDOT has promised to preserve the 22.3 mi (35.9 km) long western
wilderness of old-growth curves that twist tightly through the razed and
replanted rainforest along the northern coast of the Olympic Peninsula. While
environmental groups of a different color are content to merely hang off
bridges, Greypeace is busy building them.
