BONUS EPISODE: The Coastal Adventure Trail of Oregon

Listen on

Episode notes

This week, listen to an episode from Armchair Productions' newest series, The Hidden Trails of Oregon!

Join us on the Coastal Adventure Trail for a documentary road trip, following award-winning travel writer Aaron Millar from Florence to Port Orford and beyond. 

We begin at the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area, in Florence, for a sand-boarding lesson from world champion rider Gabe Cruz. Then, we head south down the coast, stopping at the sleepy seaside town of Port Orford for wild beaches, windswept headlands, ocean swells and one of the greatest wildlife experiences on Earth. Continuing along the coast, we explore the secret coves of the Samuel H. Boardman State Scenic Corridor – perhaps the most spectacular stretch of road in the entire Pacific Northwest – and finish in a forest of giants, fit for a fantasy book. 

Through it all, we’re going to discover why adventure is about more than laughs and gasps - it’s about fostering a deep connection to the natural world, and in doing so, perhaps, a deeper connection to yourself too.
