Highlights
  • Camp 18 Museum - Those who want to learn more about logging history in the northwest, or who simply are curious about vintage logging machinery, will find plenty of material at Camp 18. Outdoor displays include multiple steam donkeys such as a Dolbeer single spool, a very early first-generation model, to a high-tech late-model Willamette compound geared yarder that was the height of technology for its day. Other displays on site include a large bandsaw from a sawmill, a self-propelled Ohio steam crane, Caterpillar-style tracked vehicles that worked in the woods, a railroad skeleton log car and other heavy equipment plus a wide variety of large and small hardware. We will make a quick stop here on our way to the spectacular Oregon Coast so that you can explore the historic equipment, use the restroom, and buy some coffee if you want.

Excellent! - We appreciate very much the guide service. Phil was extremely nice and helpful. And we are particulary grateful that he has not canceled the trip despite we were the only guests, as the others canceled afrait of the heat. And our decision was the best in this hot day, as the temperature at the coast was extremely pleasant, unlike in Portland. Thank you. Jozef & Ewa, Kraków, Poland

Coastal fun - The best time! The weather was less than ideal but still ok. Our guide, Phoebe, was so nice, very knowledgeable, and super good under pressure. We had a bit of chaos, but it just added an unexpected side quest.
