    Ft Stevens campground at the right time.(or wrong time) is mosquito hell! I go there 1-2 times a year. The best hike to the Iredale and back. Safe but long hike. It's wonderful!

    We love the Astoria area, and often camp at Ft Steven. Hope you made it up to the Astor Column, great views from up there. Looking out across Young's Bay and the airport all the way to Saddle Mt. Did you stop in Seaside on the way up? You can visit the Salt Citrin where Lewis and Clark got salt from the sea water, and then at Astoria there is Fort Clatsop where Lewis and Clark spent the Winter. Safe travels.

    Just another great video guys! Too bad about the trail being blocked off by construction. I love the Oregon coast. But it’s been decades since I’ve been out that way. So thank you for taking us along for the ride. Loved the close up of Pistol snarfing the green beans. Long live the Green Bean Queen!!! Hope all is well?! Carey On!

    For the uninitiated (or vegetarian or vegan), a corn dog is made with cornbread batter and a Pronto Pup is made with flour or pancake batter. Corn dogs are considered sweet; Pronto Pups are not.

    That shipwreck is getting less & less over the years - so cool to see it! We crossed a few small bars in Mexico - this one would be frightening. We stayed at that state park years ago - our old Lab like swimming in Coffin Bury Lake there (icky lake name). The river looks serene from above.

    Great video! We just spent spring break camping at Cape Disappointment and spent an afternoon at Fort Stevens. Got some great footage there! This part of the Pacific Coast warrants a good long stay, as there is SO much to do! We go back every year to the coast, and always come away wanting to see more. Thanks guys!

    I grew up visiting all those sites and remember the Peter Iredale being much bigger. Battery Russell is a BIG part of my childhood. It’s almost always deserted. (They didn’t fire back to keep their location hidden.) Imagine how amazing that place is to kids. Wonderfully scary! The Astoria Column used to be called the Astor Column, after John Jacob Astor. We used to spit off it as kids.

    We were there last year. There are two herds of elk in the park. We woke up one morning surrounded by Elk! They were laying in the empty campground right across from us. This was in October. They hung around for over an hour before they slowly moved off. Probably 30 elk! I just sat in my chair drinking my coffee. They said it was unusual for them to be in the campground. We went to Fort Clatsop when we left. Where Lewis & Clark spent the winter. Worth a trip. Great fun!

    @CorndogCaravan-zc1mg 6 месяцев назад +1

    Well....if we could make an educated guess, the batter is different (pronto pup vs corndog). We had a pronto pup in Idaho, it wasn't our favorite. We LOVED The Corndog Company corndogs better. I think Corndogs have a sweeter batter. So it's going to be a personal taste preference. ❤

    I was born 30yrs after the end of WWII, and Fort Stevens has been in ruins my whole life, I don’t buy the official story. It’s large stone refaced in concrete, with newer added concrete stairs and metal railings. I believe it’s FAR older than we’re told.
