DIRECTIONS
Sunset Highway West to Highway 47. Turn right towards Vernonia. About seven miles
past Stub Stewart State Park you'll see the Beaver Creek Trailhead parking area on
the right. Lots of parking. Privy close by. No pass required.
Apparently, thieves and vandals breaking into cars parked here is not uncommon
so be advised. I'm sure most of the locals here are nice people but there are
a fair number of trailer dwelling meth addicted dirtbags living here too...
It's been raining buckets for quite a while. First half way decent day so.....
good color out this way this time of year.
I shot all of these pictures in manual and also thought it was time to experiment
with shooting in RAW mode. So do you think these pictures look better (or worse)
than what I usually post here?
Lunchtime....
