The Olympic Forest was originally designated as the Olympic Forest Reserve but was renamed to the Olympic National Forest in the early 1900s. This region also contains several wilderness areas including the Brothers Wilderness, Buckhorn Wilderness, Colonel Bob Wilderness, Mt. Skokomish Wilderness, and Wonder Mountain Wilderness that are administered by two ranger districts – the Pacific Ranger District and the Hood Canal Ranger District.

There are 6 named mountains in Tiger Mountain State Forest. The highest and most prominent peak is East Tiger Mountain at 3,004 ft. The remaining peaks, from east to west, include West Tiger 1 at 2,958 ft, West Tiger 2 at 2,757 ft, and West Tiger 3 at 2,557 ft. The remaining two peaks are located just south of the main ridge and include Middle Tiger at 2,607 ft and South Tiger at 2,028 ft.

Tiger Mountain State Forest is one the most heavily trafficked forests in the entire state being located so close to Seattle. The forest has over half a dozen trails that lead to the top of one of the many peaks as well as numerous trails that traverse sections of the forest. The forest is known by locals for its accessibility, lush landscape, hiking, running, and mountain biking trails.

nasty-shy [4]

Frost wedging occurs because rocks becomes brittle when they freeze and water occupies more volume than ice.

Frost weathering is a collective term for several mechanical weathering processes triggered via stresses created by using the freezing of water into ice. The term serves as an umbrella term for a ramification of techniques which include frost shattering, frost wedging and cryofracturing.

Frost wedging takes place while water filling a crack freezes and expands (because it freezes, water expands 8 to 11% in volume over liquid water). The expanding ice imparts a extremely good amount of pressure against the rock (as plenty as 30,000 kilos/rectangular inch) and wedges open the crack.

Frost wedging takes place in locations which have the right temperatures to freeze water after which soften water. This normally happens in polar areas and mid latitude mountains wherein daylight can soften water throughout the day and refreeze overnight when temperatures drop.

xeze [42]

Unless you have some classified the answer is no. United Stated and Russia are not in an official Cyber War, although I would not be surprised if we would soon find out they are going at one another through those means.
