Oregon Coast Trail – Cannon Beach

I am quickly learning that this trail is beautiful, but also requires a much higher level of planning than I am used to.  For example, campsites are not very common and tend to be a hiker/biker sites at state parks or campsites at private RV parks. Well, I got to cannon beach last night intending to camp at the RV park only to find out that it closed on Labor day, so I had to take the bus back up to seaside to book a cheap accomodation there. So I can’t just shut my brain off and hike like I am used to doing on something like the pct, I’m going to have to be much more intentional here.  But the trail itself is great!  My first day was half on the beach until seaside and then through beautiful dense Oregon forest to cannon beach.  It was lovely 😍

My first view of the ocean
This was basically my view for the first 10-15 miles of trail 🥰
Love me some dense, mossy forest in a fog 😍😍😍
Indian point.  This is the area where they filmed things like the Goonies and Twilight!
