Lamplighter, ME, thanks for the nice comments. :) It was beautiful, not my first trip there, and not my last. As for giving away the secret, I was not the first. I saw plates from as far away as Alberta and BC (though BC is closer than Oregon), California, etc. We're famous and we know it. But don't tell them about Cycle Camp, ok?

Looks fabulous, BigV!

This is a No, NO, NO...

People DO get killed doing this... Stay OFF of the beach logs.

And get off of my lawn!

Thanks for the tour, V. Looks great.


lamplighter, what is the danger of beach logs? That behemoth is too big for V to tip it over with his weight.

More than people standing on one foot ona makeshift ladder reaching out with chainsaws near powerlines?



it's OK, he has someone holding his bear beer.....

If you avoid doing anything where people have been killed, then how the heck are you supposed to get killed?

But with a "rogue" or "sneaker" wave or even incoming tide waves,
small logs and behemoths start shifting and rolling, and we don't want anyone falling under them.

Oregon drifts logs kill one or two beachcombers a year, even with signs warning to stay off/away from beached logs.

One or two a year? Slipping on banana skins probably kills about that many too....

Everybody hide under their beds for the rest of their lives!

Wait.... how many people are killed by their bed falling on them?

damn Beautiful V !!!!!!!

Thanks, Lamp, but I think this particular one is acceptably low risk. If the log was half in the water already, I can see a big wave shifting it and then it would indeed be dangerous. V's Log is so big and so far up the beach (yes, I said beach) that any wave big enough to shift it would be dangerous all by itself anyway. Clambering about on those rocks near Hole-in-the-Wall was at least as perilous.

Or he's working on a new extreme sport. WICKED!!!

ETA ... on second thought, we can't see the back side of that log in the pic. If it is perched near the edge of a berm, and that berm were to be undermined by a big wave, the log could roll. yeah, that would be dodgy.

Big V, with that dead seal/sea lion thingy, try clicking on the red X to see if it closes. :)

OK people... if you're going to trust the odds, just be sure you wear your seat belt. ;)

Did u rly just post about the size of bigv's log?
