This is Face Rock. The face on this sea stack is the work of the sun, wind, rain, and waves. It is an awesome image with a mystical presence.

Arizona Beach State Recreation Site is the newest state park in our area. Arizona Beach is a two-third mile stretch of sand bookended by two rocky headlands.

The wetlands attract elk and a variety of waterfowl.

This is Hubbard Creek Beach looking west in 1 photo and north in the second photo toward the commercial fishing port in Port Orford. It is 9:15 am in the afternoon on 11 December 2008. The temperature is 52 degrees and the sun is warm. This photo speaks to our life style here in Port Orford where the Pine forest on the coastal hills extends down to the beach. There are no surfers right now they are waiting for the larger waves that preceed an incoming storm approaching from the northwest. This is the favorite spot for ocal surfers. The alternative beach for surfing is Battle Rock Beach. … (0 comments)
