The Adventure Ed Washington Coast Trip


This last week I spent hiking along sandy beaches, rocky points, and through trails. It was the Adventure Ed Washington Coast Trip. It was awesome! First of all we had nearly perfect weather. Second of all we had great campsites! And third of all (this one is bad) we had to hike in sand and gravel! The first campsite that we stayed at was called Cape Alava, here we walked out to Cannonball Island where we say round boulders that were the leading edge of a glacier years ago. The next campsite that we stayed at was called Yellow Banks, when we were here we all lay on the beach and sunbathed. We also went into the water and played in the HUGE waves. The third campsite that we stayed at was called Cedar Creek, this is because all of the cedar seeps into the river making it a redish color. When we were here we not only sunbathed but when the tide went out we walked / swam out to this small rock island that was covered in muscles, we collected some muscles and took them beck to the campsite where we cooked them over the fire. The fourth and last campsite that we stayed at was called Chilean Memorial, While we were here we ate all the rest of out food and we just talked about the trip. The next day we got up and hiked back to the parking lot where we caught the bus and went home. All in all the trip was really cool with very minimal difficulties.
