If women hadn’t gone on the Oregon Trail‚ it probably wouldn’t have gotten that far. Women and girls play a big

The rocks are gently folded and have a slight westward dip. As we walked out onto the Jetty‚ you could see how the waves came in at a slight angle rather than directly at the coast. Most of the rocks (particularly the smaller hand held size rocks) were jagged and triangular looking. This told me that these rocks came from a relatively close proximity
