TRIP ALONG SEVEN DEVILS ROAD

OCTOBER 5, 2008




Along Seven Devils road







Overcast day, but a great day for a trip back down to Bandon via Seven Devils Road. Not sure where they came up with the name Seven Devils .














One thing about the areas along the Pacific from Bandon to Whisky Row is its prime beaches, which are somewhat isolated and have great potential for finding agates. Here you can walk on the beach for miles with very few access roads coming down to the beach.

We never had the chance today to look for any of the Agates, but on our last trip to Bandon in February we observed some people sifting through the sand picking up agates. We originally thought of looking at Bandon for some, but since it was a little cool and the surf was still rough from the previous storm we decided against it. Temperature was in the mid fifty's.

There will be other days that we can pursue looking for these gems, but not today.












We stopped at Whisky Row Beach to see if there was anything that would be of interest to us. We were not aware of agates in that area so we never pursed looking for them. Real nice beach and well maintained. Would be a great place for a picnic in the summer.
