This 310-acre preserve includes the most diverse and undisturbed example of a sphagnum bog ecosystem and connected lake on the Olympic Peninsula. The site supports a state-candidate animal species, the Makah copper butterfly, and a state-sensitive animal species, the Olympic mudminnow, as well as other species which only occur in bog ecosystems.
- John Locke (plato.standford.edu)
John Locke (b. 1632, d. 1704) was a British philosopher, Oxford academic and medical researcher. Locke’s monumental An Essay Concerning Human Understanding (1689) is one of the first great defenses of modern empiricism and concerns itself with determining the limits of human understanding in respect to a wide spectrum of topics. It thus tells us in some detail what one can legitimately claim to know and what one cannot.
