I am obsessed with lighthouses. This place has one. Tillamook Lighthouse is situated on the island visible from the trail if Ecola State Park.

Hike was pleasant. We saw rays of lights coming through the ribbons of fog in between of high trees. And nothing alerted me. When we reached viewpoint I felt the biggest disappointment. The fog was so dense that nothing could be seen!
Ecola State Park has lovely beach and viewpoint with impressive view
