Location  Threemile Lake Hike

Where:  Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area

 

 A change in the weather forecast for Sunday from wet to dry provided the incentive to go hiking. In fact the forecast looked better for the coast than inland, so we choose the Threemile Lake Trail which is only about an hour away from our home in Elkton.

This trail is a good one for mushrooms, we always see a lot of them, and several times we have seen others harvesting. We were able to get updated photos of a Cauliflower mushroom and Witch's Butter.

We had our lunch perched on the sand dunes above Threemile Lake. Below us at the lake level were camped a group of boy scouts.
