| Most people use the parking lot to go to the beach. We went the opposite direction and went to the woods for a hike. |
| Doesn't look it in the photo but was a 7 plus percent incline for about 20 minutes, then leveled off to a less incline the rest of the hike. |
| JoAnn called this a Hobbit's home. If you read the book or saw the movie Lord of the Rings you know what it means. |
| Trees all around. |
| Logging. |
| Cairn. Stands about 15 inches tall. |
| Another view. |
| Soaking in the green. |
| Back before chainsaws, men cut slots in the trees with an ax to be able to put a plank in the climb up to cut the tree down. |
| Lots of flowers. |
| View of the ocean. JoAnn said would be a great place to build a house here. |
| Plant lots of flowers like these. |
| Never seen white foxglove flowers before. Only the purple ones. |
| JoAnn going off trail again. |
| Nice view. That is Lincoln City and Cascade Head. |
| Cascade Head and a cloud bank in the background. |
| Black eyed peas? |
| Flowers in the trail. Plan to hike this trail again. |
