Reedsport to Brookings, places to stay; winter deals
(Manzanita, Oregon) – At Manzanita there's a constant looming, even overwhelming presence. First peoples here thought of it as a god, and maybe there's some amount of truth to that. Neahkahnie Mountain is this north Oregon coast town's most massive feature, its centerpiece, and there are chunks of it and nearby Cape Falcon that are chock full of striking finds you probably haven't noticed before.

From legends of Sir Francis Drake and mysterious objects found here, possible treasure, to even the purported existence of a “pirate bar” lurking around one dangerous corner, the intrigue and wowing sights abound.
