Five days and we only got halfway down the coast! To appreciate the grandeur of this landscape, you'd need at least a month. Come with Stress, Sarah and me as we explore the Northern Oregon Coast!

What is it about rock arches that is so interesting? (Probably because they're arches, made out of ROCK!)

  • The column was decorated with the accomplishments of the early explorers.
  • Is that a monument, or is Astoria just happy to see me?
  • From the top of the Astoria Column, you can see across the Columbia River into Washington. Note the Astoria Bridge. Very long.
  • I love maps.
  • Our next stop, Ecola State Park, just north of Cannon Beach, Oregon.
  • Cannon Beach is known for its iconic Haystack Rocks.
  • Again with the Haystack Rocks. Heavy.
  • Ecola State Park was literally CRAWLING with these caterpillars (much to Sarah's unbridled delight)!
  • Another insanely beautiful view from Ecola State Park (which always makes me think of E-coli, which is not what I want to be thinking about when I'm shooting landscapes).
  • Pelican Briefs.
  • I wish you could hear how LOUD these waves were, crashing against the rocks! It's amazing that there's any coast left at all...
  • Yeah, kid. It's a lot to take in. (Isn't this totally better than being in school??)
  • I really liked the mix of sand and smooth stones.
  • What is it about rock arches that is so interesting? (Probably because they're arches, made out of ROCK!)
  • Who goes there?
  • Before the crashing waves...
  • After the crashing waves!
  • I love how when kids get to the beach, their first instinct is to run like the wind!
  • Indian Beach, inside of Ecola State Park, made us jump for joy!
  • Many cartwheels were turned.
