-I dropped tent off at Lewis Meadow campsite (~ 10 miles from Hoh River trailhead).  Then took day pack up to Lorain meadow/peak.  At the top you got a great view of the Glacier Meadow and all the Mt. Olympus peaks.  Although the hike was 2 days I would suggest at least 5 for full enjoyment.  Day 1 is a 10 mile hike to Lewis Meadow campground.  The site is along the river so you can replenish your water supply and there is a bear wire to hoist you food up in the trees.
-Day 2 would be a ~ 8 mile hike to the Galcier meadows camp site.  Summit one of the Mt. Olympus peaks on Day 3.  Crampons, rope, harness, snow axe are necessary as well as experience.  Spend the next 2 days hiking back.  You may want to throw in a rest day or another day to hike to Hoh lake.

-GPS eXchange file.  It is loaded up as text since it is an XML like file.  Just save it as text and you should be able to upload it to your GPS.
