Trail at Cascade Head - August 2021 Coast Trip

Cascade Head is just a few miles north of Lincoln City, Oregon.

The hike starts out with about 1/2 mile of trail parallel to the road, with parts of it on the shoulder of the road, until you get to the actual trailhead (there is no parking at the trailhead but there is a great parking area by the boat ramp) From there it's pretty much all up hill until you reach the top. The first half of the hike (after leaving the road) is through medium densely forested area. The trail starts out going through private land so we are careful to stay on the trail. The trail is well marked and well used.
At somewhat more than half way the trail comes out of the trees and opens up onto a sloped grassy meadow area. For the rest of the hike you wide, expansive views.
If you have bad knees, this is not the hike for you. But, if you want the same view from the top, take the upper road and the shorter, less steep trail from there. We saw a lot more hikers on this trail than we did on the Harts Cove trail the previous day, but it still wasn't too crowded. The video clips at the end are sped up, but not the audio of the wind.

Freeze dried food will stay fresh for many years and be ready and waiting when you need it.

We do videos showing how we are using our Harvest Right Freeze Dryer to freeze dry food for long term storage. (We have the medium size machine that we got in August of 2017) We talk about how to load and unload the freeze dryer, how to know if the food is dry, is it better to freeze dry raw food or cooked food, and do a few taste tests. Freeze dried food is also great for prepping or just for camping and snacking!
