About this event
Old favorite hike that I havent done for seven years. Now the only way to experience Harts Cove, its hidden coastal waterfall, and its soundtrack of barking sea lions, is to start from the Cascade Head South Trailhead. This is a very long day, as we will hike 14.3 miles, gaining 2,900, with half the elevation gain before lunch and half the elevation gain after lunch, as we have to go back the same way. But our route is spectacular at times with pristine coastal forest and the famous coastal view
