Redwood Forest

One weekend in October we drove down to the Redwood National Forest in Northern California. Our first night we only drove part of the way so that we could really enjoy the beauty of southern Oregon. We spent the night along the Rogue River in a yurt. The next day we enjoyed a fun tour of the Oregon caves as we headed south. We then camped on the coast in the shadows of the Redwoods for the next two nights with our friends Susanna and Elizabeth. We took an eight mile hike on a trail through the Redwoods that finished by walking us through a fern gully before dumping us out on the sunny beach, where we ran into a huge elk! On our drive home, we stopped at a fun pull-off and enjoyed a picnic lunch between two rocks on a deserted Oregon beach. It was a fantastic trip!
