    I'm planning a trip up to the Olympic peninsula, and everything's going great - except I can't find any places that have functioning showers. I'm planning on taking a pretty large group for about a week, so it's kind of a necessity. I've found 1 or 2 campgrounds with pay showers, but they're a little too far away from where we're going to be spending most of our time (mostly over in the upper right part of the peninsula - Port Angeles, Port Townsend area.)

    Does anyone know of some campgrounds in the general area that might have showers?
