My best streetdocking view so far

I’m parked right on US-101 in Depoe Bay, Oregon. They claim to have the world’s smallest harbor, but they also have some terrific views of the ocean.

It’s 10:05 on a busy holiday weekend, and there has been a lot of traffic whizzing by (I’m just outside the 25 MPH zone). But things are quieting down, and the bicycle lane between me and the southbound vehicles eases my mind a little.

In the lower left corner of the picture you can see a rope. It’s about 1.5 inches thick and is neatly and professionally fastened to a large tree at the edge of the cliff. It’s there to help brave/foolish people make their way down and back up a very steep trail to the black sand beach in the cove. I have not tried it.

    1. I saw some "old ladies" head down the rope and felt a little ashamed. I didn't notice if they ever came back up.
