Nature: Cape Kiwanda

February 1, 2011

Promises of 60 degree weather beckoned me to the coast last Thursday. Sure enough when I stepped out of my car in Pacific City I felt transported to summer (at least what  the best days of summer are like on the Oregon Coast). To the left of the Pacific City beach lies Cape Kiwanda which is one of my favorite places on the coast. Beyond a massive sand dune lies beautiful rock formations colored in orange and red. I could easily sit there all day watching the waves hit the rocks.

The weather was really nice again over the weekend so I headed back there with a friend. We came across an area on the cape where, when the waves hit the rocks, they shot 50+ feet up into the air. Reminded me of Old Faithful at Yellowstone, except this happened much more frequently (every two minutes or so). There are two photos from that day mixed in.
