Default Pacific NW opportunities?

Hello All,

It appears that I will have the opportunity to be in Seattle (95% + sure)
for the final week of June, and I'll have 2 or 3 full days to myself to wet
a line, most likely during the week. It's been years since I've been in
Washington state, and, when I started researching the trip, I quickly became
overwhelmed by all the fishing possibilities. My preference is for wild
fish in moving water that ranges from tiny to medium-sized. I'd much rather
spend a day casting (flailing?) to average fish in relative solitude and a
beautiful setting than I would standing elbow to elbow on a famous water
with a shot at trophies. The setting is a HUGE part of the experience for
me! This still leaves me with a bewildering range from which to
choose...Cascades (western or eastern, north or south?), Olympics or maybe
something I've completely overlooked? I'll have a car, but I'm afraid that
hiring a guide isn't in the budget at this time. I'm certainly not asking
for any secrets, but if anyone might suggest a region or spot where I could
find trouty bliss for a couple of days, I'd be grateful.

Cheers,
Bill
