Umpqua, Oregon 97486
(Photos)
Heading straight for the tallest point in the dunes
Almost looks like a desert
A-hiking across the sands we go
Yardangs on an exposed dune crest
Hiking blithely past the wind sculpted yardangs
Wind sculpture art on the dunes
More yardangs
Yardangs by the dozens
Like ants on a picnic blanket
Wind patterns on the sands
Air currents went every which way, apparently
Hey, you don't need to wait for me or anything like that
The amazing landscape of the dunes
More dune art
We followed this crest toward the marshes
John hikes by this photographer
View from atop the dune world
Rolling waves of sand
It was a glorious day for a hike, too
A rocky mound is so out of place in all the surrounding sand
We hiked along the edges of the marshes for a bit
One of many small ponds in the marshes
These water spots are surrounded by treacherous quicksand
That tree island is a hiker's navigational aid in the featureless dunes
The texture of the dunes after a rain
