Location

A vacant lot in Ocean Shores.

Participants

Expedition

From base camp in Hoquiam, I drove out to the Ocean Shores Penninsula, arriving at 8 a.m. and parking on Razorclam Drive, which I picked for the goofy name. Someone clearly had BIG BIG real estate dreams for Ocean Shores at some point, but that train has been slow in coming and a high-end infrastructure supports a scattering of spec housing.

So it is that the hashpoint falls on a wooded vacant corner lot. I ran by, then ducked into the bushes to get myself on the actual point, which was under a tree. I popped back out and continued a nice 2 1/2 mile jog. Afterwards, I did a drive-by to get a few pictures.
