Trees of Oregon Coastal Highway

We had driven through miles of redwood groves in California and the redwoods make these look short and puny...but I just couldn't capture the majesty of the redwoods with any justice, so these trees along the Oregon coast will just have to do. And you can tell I have no idea what kind of trees they are. So much to look up and learn!

Amazingly straight and tall. You could just call them 'conifers'!

lovely repetition.

I've enjoyed seeing photos of your cross-country trip. Welcome to Oregon! They're probably Douglas firs. :-)
