Hike of the Week
Hikers either swear by or swear at Weden Creek Trail No. 724, known to most as the Gothic Basin Trail. No hiker is likely to forget this trail. Some vow never to return, while others can't get back soon enough to roam this stony, glacier-scoured basin.

Short Trips
FLORENCE, Ore. -- On Oct. 29, Oregon scientists, politicians and educators will gather in Florence to discuss something near and dear to their hearts -- the Oregon Coast. Not surprising, folks on the Central Coast want to learn more about how to save and maintain some of this state's most valuable assets -- its shoreline and ocean environment.
