Three days of camping and exploring at Cape Perpetua on the Central Oregon coast: tide pools with purple sea urchins, an old-growth coastal forest hike, pounding surf at Thor’s Well and Devil’s Churn, and even a spouting whale to top it all off (sorry, no whale photos).
A hike from Short Sand Beach to the rocky summit of Neahkahnie Mountain.

I’m spending time in every one of Oregon’s Seven Wonders this year for work on a new hiking book. I went back to the Painted Hills for a camping and hiking trip this past weekend. If you haven’t been there yet, I highly recommend it!
