7-photo photomerge of Giant Spruce near Cape Perpetua (Oregon Coast)

One of the five hikes (maps here) we ventured on this past weekend, near Yachats, ended at this tree, nearly 200 feet tall and 600 years old. The hike was awesome, by the way; the trail is lovely, and it’s an easy 2-mile hike out and back.

If April showers bring May flowers, what do April snows bring?

We went for a hike on Wagner Butte on Saturday, expecting rain but receiving snow. Snow, instead of rain, was far more comfortable on this 10-mile hiking adventure.

I’ve done this trail before in sunny weather. Directions can be found here. Note that the bullet-ridden sign (top image in link) is no longer there so don’t be looking for it.

Sorry for all of the downtime. We should be back for good now and faster loading than ever.
