Trip to Cannon Beach, May 9, 2010


Christopher, Catherine and I went to Cannon Beach yesterday. We drove into town where I purchased an Oregon State Park year pass, orange and poppyseed muffin.

We drove to Indian Beach, parked in the lower parking area and hiked up the trail about a quarter mile. We found the fourth and last of the “twilight” series caches. The coordinates were over 80’ off.

It was warm day with a light breeze. We ate at a picnic table overlooking Indian Beach (La Push in the movie). There were a lot of surfers. Driving back to Cannon Beach I stopped briefly at Ecola Park to take photographs of Tillamook Rock Lighthouse.

We drove into Cannon Beach where Christopher found a cache. Catherine and I waited at a bench with a view of Haystack Rock. We headed back about 2:30pm. Clouds and rain met us as we drove east over the Coast Range.

Christopher and I will find the "twilight" series Bonus Cache someday soon. I plan to have lunch at a nearby restaurant. I met the owner a week ago and had an interesting chat.
