Silver Falls, March 2007



Jon and I visited Silver Falls in March. We had just received an ice storm, so much of the trail was icy. This hike was cool because you can hike around behind the waterfall. Silver Falls is south of Portland, near Salem, our state capital.





Neskowin, Westwind, May 2007



The Jon Janske clan had another great year at Westwind! Westwind is the YWCA camp that we rent out on the Oregon coast between Neskowin and Lincoln City. It's in a private cove that's only accessible by boat during high tide. You must cross a river to get to it, and hopefully you'll be able to see it in the panorama.

Jon and I did the Cascade Head hike which leads up to a bluff where I snagged the panorama view of the cove. We also did a shorter hike with the group to a bluff on the other side. That's where all the green hill people pictures are from.

A great time was had by all and we can't wait until next year. Jon and I attended our first Westwind trip in 2005.
