Narration by Rheo Wheeler
We had a group of 13 for the Hobbit Trail hike on the 13th. Seems as if we were pushing our luck, but the sun did shine down on us as we stair stepped over the cape. This sounds like an easy 2 + mile hike to the beach on the other side from Heceta Head lighthouse, but it is a virtual stairmaster of nature. We extended our distance by crossing highway 101 and adding the valley trail to bring us to the day use area of Carl Washburn State Park and the beach for lunch.
Then it was a stroll down the beach to pick up the Hobbit Trail and yet again stairmaster ourselves back over the cape to complete our 7 mile feel good hike.
