Cannon Beach Oregon
The top two photos are scenes at Indian Beach, at the beginning of the Clatsop Loop Trail. The views are to the south. The bottom photos are views northwest, left, and south, right. On the trek south on January 8, 1806, Clark marveled at the view: "proceeded to the top of the mountain...the highest part...faceing the Sea is open, from this point I beheld the grandest and most pleasing prospects which my eyes ever surveyed, in my frount a boundless Ocean...." With ever changing forest growth, open views are fewer now than when Clark's group climbed Tillamook Head.
