Highway 106 Along Hood Canal

Highway 106 on the Hood Canal Shore

This camera watches Washington State Route 106, a scenic two-lane road that traces the southern edge of Hood Canal between Union and Belfair. The frame captures the gentle curve of the asphalt, its double yellow centerline, and the guardrail posts guiding traffic along the waterfront.

The Hood Canal Fjord

Hood Canal is a long natural fjord of Puget Sound, carved by glaciers and rimmed by the forested foothills of the Olympic Mountains. Across the water, the far shore and its scattered homes and lights mark the opposite bank of this tranquil saltwater inlet.

Union and the Olympic Peninsula

The cam sits near Union, a small community in Mason County on the Olympic Peninsula. The route is a beloved gateway for travelers heading toward Olympic National Park, the region's oyster farms, and its waterside resorts.
