The history within reach
- The Oregon Dunes43 mi
Forty miles of sand rising up to 500 feet, the largest coastal dunes in North America.
There was no road up the Rogue canyon, so the post office contracted boats to carry mail thirty-two miles upriver to Agness, one of the last places in America where mail still goes by boat.
A dead sperm whale washed up and the highway division, which had jurisdiction over beaches, decided to remove it with half a ton of dynamite on the theory that scavengers would take the pieces.
- Golden67 mi
A mining camp founded by campbellite preachers who built a church but, pointedly, no saloon, the miners walked elsewhere to drink.
- Sea Lion Caves71 mi
The largest sea cave in America, about two acres of floor under a dome twelve storeys high, and the only year-round mainland rookery Steller sea lions have.
