While winters are mild at lower elevation, with temperatures in the 30's and 40's, snowfall can be heavy in the mountains, with accumulations of up to 10 feet common

You should call ahead and see if it is open, sometimes they close the park or portions of it when snows are deep. Visitor info is 1 360 565 3130, Hurricane Ridge info as 1 360 452 0329.Other than that bring warm clothes. I like the park in all seasons. Get a Port Angeles paper and maybe a Port Townsend paper for things to do.ENJOY!

My mom and I stayed at this little wooden lodge on Lake Quinalt a couple Februarys ago - the less expensive one (I think there are two) - it was really cute and pretty cheap, too. There were salmon dinners every Friday at the fancy lodge, and plenty of pretty trails. The ocean's great in the winter, too - very stormy.
The one thing I'd advise is... don't camp! My English teacher was telling us about her weekend camping trip to the Hoh rainforest, sometime in the winter... and it rained an inch in one night and flooded out their tent. Ah!
Anyway, have fun!

Hurricane Ridge is great, no denying that. I personally love going into the Hoh Rain Forst, just south of Forks. there are a few short trails from the ranger station and the scenery is just magnificent. Just as the name implies, it is almost a guarantee for rain there but the campground is pretty nice.

The average temperature this time of year is a high of 47F and a low of 33F. You would probably want to stay in Port Angeles.
