WEATHER NOTE: MAY BE FOG. TRULY 0% PROBABILITY OF RAIN. Cummins Creek Loop climbs right from the Cape Perpetua visitor center for about 3 miles, gaining about 1000' to the junction with Gwynn Creek Trail. Continuing past Gwynn Creek, we climb a little more and then start a long, gentle descent back to the Oregon Coast Trail, taking the OCT back to the Center. Lunch is on an overlook at the beginning of the descent.
