    Nice work as always Matt. Have been here many times over the decades...a truly awesome place to behold the power of the Pacific. It used to be that at certain tide levels, the surf rushing into the deep end of the cave would create a pretty significant boom that would resonate out and through the ground. It's been many years since I've last visited and maybe erosion has changed that effect.
    Thanks for repeatedly emphasizing the dangers. My neighbors lost their teenage son to the Pacific when a wave swept him off some rocks just a little ways north from here. The perils of the Oregon coast can never be taken lightly.

      @MattCookOregon  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you! Wishing I caught that deep noise, I hear it a lot at Thor's Well but didn't notice it here. Sorry to hear that someone was lost. The ocean is nothing to mess around with. The eye candy deceives is and gives a peaceful feeling.

    All to enter/escape inland cave at a minus low tide. Which
