The Wild Left Coast

Winding Oregon coastline, into California and mingling with the creatures among the majestic redwoods (they make normal trees look stupid), rugged cliffs below highway one... four days wrapped into one

First morning - Oregon coast, 50 miles south of Newport

 

Oregon Dunes

Redwoods National Park

Approaching the coast through the Redwoods - trees become "normal" again
