Trip Report

Old town Bandon was busy, nice to see them coming out of the pandemic..Taking advantage of a minus tide we hiked/boulder dashed around a rock wall north of Blacklock point....The hi-lite was seeing a mom otter & her 3 pups....Gr8 sunsets, one evening we saw the "green flash"....Our hike south, to Floras Lake, allowed us to see the kite/wind surfers....The trails are nicely maintained...I admired this group, they all overcame serious health concerns to keep going with their love of the outdoors.....
