North Coast Chorale Small group (4-6 voices) rehearsals Starting very soon! The Fort to Sea Trail leads from Fort Clatsop to Sunset Beach following the route members of the Lewis and Clark Expedition possibly used during their encampment in 1805 to 1806. Continued from Page 8 Get a bird’s eye view of the coast’s ver- dant timberland and a seven-acre lake by gliding through the air with High Life Adventures Zip Line Tours. Travel in the footsteps of the Lewis and Clark Expedition by walking the 6.5-mile Fort to Sea Trail, built around the begin- ning of the century for the bicentennial cel- ebration of the Corps of Discovery. You can begin the trail from the Sitka spruce forest near the fort replica in Lewis and Clark National Historical Park or at the Sunset Beach State Recreation Site, a 120- acre park along the Clatsop Plains. From Sunset Beach — which provides visitors with vehicle access to the shoreline — you can see Ecola State Park and Tillamook Head to the south, and Cape Disappoint- ment to the north. While you’re in the Warrenton area, include a stop at Cullaby Lake County Park, just south of the city. The entrance fee is $5 for day-use. With a shallow wading area on the west shore of the lake, an inter- pretive trail, picnic areas and a playground, the lush park is a welcoming respite for families. The park also offers public access to a boat launch and docks, and is the site of the Lindgren Cabin, a Finnish-American heritage site.
