Day 21 - Cape Perpetua: Devil's Churn

Our living room view.

Lots of greenery en route to the Churn.

Spot the Russ.

These trees are known to be unusually slippery when wet. So much so that the Park Service has installed warnings. Still, there is always a small heap of tourists lying in the stinging nettles below, after trying to disprove the fact.

The World Famous Multiplex Tree.

This plant has taken full advantage of cracks in the rocks to spread it's roots.

There is always a photographer waiting for the Death Wave.

Meanwhile, the local influencers are one-upping each other by being artfully swept off the rocks on live stream.

A wee bit of risky business.

Ahhh - back to the beauty of the rock wall plants that line the Chasm trail.

Mini chasm feeds into the big chasm.

The Team at Perpetua's End.

Vibrant sea weed contrasts with highly textured rocks.

Protype design for Oregon's new state flag. Inspired by the spleandors of the wild Pacific Coast - it will manifest as 3 stripes.

Waves race to the beach. We cling grimly to the shoreline.

The Team navigates the Giant Logjam to get down to Perpetua Cove.

Skunkers in all their glory.

A couple sticks tossed upon the beach.

The Team in the cove.

The Team escaping the cove.

A Perpetual blue heart.

Fog incoming!!

That dapply light shows off more vibrant greens while the ferns cast shadows.
