Sasquatch Country

Gold Bluffs Beach, Redwoods NP

Brookings, Ore.

We’ve been out of WYFI range for awhile at Redwoods NP so haven’t been able to post.  The CG there is a little primitive, so much so that it’s almost like camping.  We spent quite a bit of time on the beach trying to get some shots of those Roosevelt elk that stay down there’ but no luck.  Evidently they’re more likley seen in the spring so we might catch them on the way back.  We hiked a lot of the trails in the redwoods and there’s still a couple more groves to the south of us.  No sasquatch yet, bu thats a gap I hope to fill…. 

Once the weather cleared (up around Bandon, Ore.) it’s been great ever since.  Great sunsets. We’re in Trinidad now and will head down to Eureka tomorrow for a few days.  Then its down to Cape Mendicino.

OK now, two by two, no pushing!

Just as we were about to accept species applications for two-by-two inclusion onto the cramper the rain stopped. A good thing since it was a little crowded with the sea lions. Man! It was about five days of steady rain, at times heav, with no let up. I guess a bnch of houses slid off the hill up in Florence, and it doesn’t surprise me. I noticed the rooms in Ft. Clatsop were about the size of the cramper, and L&C spent four months in them when it rained 90% of the days. So it can be done. However, the troops were beginning to revolt and I had to have a public flogging. Morale soon improved.

We headed south to try and get out of it, and got down to Bandon, Ore. before it slowed to a drizzle. It cleared for a little while and were able to get some storm surf at Cape Arago. We’re now at Brookings for a few days and it’s finally cleared. We passed a lot of neat stuff between here and Bandon, so we’re going to work that area for awhile.

We have a lot to pick up in North Oregon on the way back, but wen we leave here its California and the redwoods.
