Devil's Punch Bowl

Devil’s Punch Bowl

Day 11 ended at Beachside State Park right off of US101 and the beach was on the other side of the growth next to my tent. Laurel and Rowan rolled up as I wasp registering – hiker/biker sites have been $5 to $6 per night. I first met them at Nehalem Bay State Park and again at Cape Lookout and again last night (October 1).

The beach is wide long and beautiful.

Tent and laundry

This shows my tent set up with laundry hanging from a bush. I carried wet clothing for over a week. I dried a few thing on my handlebar bag as I rode. At night I cover my bicycle. Because of the possibilities of raccoons, all of my gear was in the tent that night. Some parks have boxes to put your food.
