DAY 2

We will depart Cape Disappointment State Park by 7:00am and drive to the wreck of the Peter Iredale in Fort Stevens State Park, Oregon (pretty much across the mouth of the Columbia from Cape Disappointment). We will stay for an hour and take photos of the wreck.

At approximately 8:30am, we'll depart the park and head south to Cannon Beach, where we'll make a quick stop to take photos (note: since we can't hit the low tide on this trip, we'll only stay 30 minutes).

Next, we'll stop at Arch Cape, further south, and spend 30 minutes taking photos, followed by lunch in Tillamook.

After lunch, we'll press on to Devil's Lake State Recreation Area and set up camp. After we're done setting up camp, we'll drive to the Drift Creek Falls trailhead and hike 2.6 miles round trip to photograph the water falls.

Dinner on your own.
