Recently went on a one week vacation to the Oregon Coast. The hiking and the scenery was great, I haven’t posted here much but I thought I would share a few shots from the week with everyone.

Our first day we hung out at Harris State Beach while we recovered from the drive and the work of setting up camp. The ocean was nice and the local shorebirds were feeding in the tide pools.

The next day we headed out Hwy 199 from the coast and walked the Hiouchi Trail along the Smith River, CA. Lots of activity on the river, kayakers and swimmers below us and steep elevation changes on the trail itself.

We followed that up the next day with a quick trip to a small beach at sunset, the light was amazing.

Our 4th hike was in the giant redwoods outside of Brookings, OR along the Chetco river. Really pretty trail!

Thanks for looking everybody... Pitdog, I keep looking for Snicker when hiking in the Northwest, someday I hope to come across him!
 
Great photos and looks like a great trip. We were there a few years ago but unfortunately most of the time our sunsets were fogged in.
 
what a paradise.
i plan to see the big trees someday and the Oregon coast

The OR coast is one of the most beautiful areas I've ever seen.
The state parks in on the OR coast are great too.
