Wikipedia EN Hamma Hamma River
The Hamma Hamma River is a river on the Olympic Peninsula in the U.S. state of Washington. It rises near Mount Washington in the Olympic Mountains within the Olympic National Park and drains to Hood Canal and thence to the Pacific Ocean.
The name Hamma Hamma comes from a Twana village once located at the river's mouth and called Hab'hab, referring to a reed that grows along the river's banks.
At its mouth, the river splits off into to two channels which feed into the Hood Canal and create a marsh. There are two bridges that cross these parts and marsh called the North and South Hamma Hamma Bridges respectively.
Near the river, you can find the Hamma Hamma Balds Natural Area Preserve.
