Cape Lookout Hike

After a six day work week (perhaps the largest check I’ll have ever earned), this Sunday my Wife and I finally got out and took a hike we’ve been thinking about for some time. Cape Lookout juts west from the main coastline just north of Pacific City and offers some amazing viewpoints. The trail was a moderate two and a half miles one way, although the poor condition of the trail in places made the hike take nearly three and a half hours.

The trail was a bit soggy in spots

We couldn’t have chosen a better day. Chilly when we started, yet warm and sunny the rest of the way. Afterwards in Pacific City we waited nearly an hour and a quarter for lunch at the Pelican Pub and Brewery. Their award winning beer (I got a nine piece sampler) made the wait worth it. A fantastic day.
