SUMMARY:OCT: Depoe Bay to Newport
DESCRIPTION:The Oregon Coast Trail (OCT) explores Oregon’s dynamic edge\, a resource-rich environment that has attracted explorers for centuries and into today. The focus is on beach walking\, utilizing lesser-traveled side roads and trails. Hiking next to Hwy 101 will be avoided as much as possible. The hike is intended to be enjoyed with a daypack and then return to a central location for tent camping. We will be car shuttling between the start and end locations each day. This trip is exploratory; flexibility is a must. Obsidian Covid protocols will be in place. The trip leader is vaccinated. \nThis trip is a 3-day\, 18-mile section hike of the OCT between Depoe Bay and Newport.  Our route will explore the middle area of this section on the first day\, the northern part on the second\, and the southerly part on the third day. We will be camping at the Beverly Beach State Park Group Camp #2. Optional: there will be ample time for additional beach exploration of 5 miles. \nSCHEDULE:\nDay 1: Sunday: At least 2 miles of hiking today with an option for more. All participants should meet at the departure location and we will explore the Yaquina Head Lighthouse & Natural Area. About 3:30 pm\, we will drive a short distance to Beverly Beach State Park and setup in a group camping area. That afternoon and evening\, we can beach walk between Beverly Beach and an outcrop before Yaquina Head (approx. 5 miles round trip)\, going any further is dependent upon tides and weather. \nDay 2: Monday: 7 miles of hiking today.  In the morning\, we shuttle north to Depoe Bay and explore a 1.5-mile section of the coast\, between Pirate Cove and just south of Deport Bay\, making a stop at the whale watch center\, and possibly another whale-related building. Then we drive south a short distance south to the Rocky Creek State Scenic Viewpoint to park. After a few hundred feet of highway walking we turn onto Otter Crest Loop\, a low-use\, one-way\, secondary road that offers great views of the rugged coast several hundred feet below along with coastal woods. Our route will take us to Cape Foulweather & the Otter Crest State Scenic Viewpoint area where the road descends to the Devil’s Punchbowl. Near the Punchbowl we will return to the sand and walk to Beverly Beach State Park.  Optional: We have the rest of the day to explore or possibly visit Newport’s waterfront in the evening. \nDay 3: Tuesday: 6 miles total. In the mid-morning\, we will break camp. To avoid an unsightly two-mile stretch of 101 we will arrange shuttles\, then start at the Agate Beach Recreation Area in Newport. We will explore north along Agate Beach\, next to the Big Creek\, before continuing south to the historic Nye Beach. At Nye Beach\, we ascend to neighborhood streets and continue another mile and a half to the Yaquina Bay Lighthouse. We end our trip at the base of the lighthouse overlooking the beautiful Yaquina Bay Bridge. We should return to Eugene in the late afternoon. \nADDITIONAL:\nFOOD: Bring all of your food (breakfast\, lunch\, dinner\, snacks).\nCLOTHING: Dress for the weather; it can be cool on at coast in the summer or have full sun. Plan on small creek crossings and getting your feet wet.\nEQUIPMENT: Tent and a small camp stove etc.\nCAMPGROUND: Our group camp is partially in the trees. We might hear some highway noise. There are picnic tables. Flush toilets and showers in the campground (check the State Park website for the current situation). Bring earplugs\, shower shoes\, and items that help you to be comfortable.\nDRIVERS: Drivers needed\, we need at least 2\, possibly 3 drivers who will shuttle between start and end locations.\nVEHICLE FEE: Trip fees pay for a total of 5 vehicles at the campground\, any additional cars need to pay $7/night.\nPASSES: Bring your state park and federal park passes (Yaquina Head is managed by the BLM)\nDEPARTURE LOCATION: Participants are responsible for getting to the Newport\, Oregon\, area\, and return transport. We will meet Sunday\, noon (12pm) at the Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area Interpretive Center parking lot. The Group leader will confirm with participants one week before the trip about the departure location. \nPAYMENTA).
