If you spend enough time in the Oregon outdoors, you realize that when it comes to winter weather, luck is a good partner to have by your side. So it was on a recent streamside stroll into a watershed where the rain is often measured in feet -- not inches but where huge surprises waited at the end of the trail.
Drift Creek will carry you away --- perhaps where imagination travels---on a wonderful trail alongside a classic "pool and drop" Oregon stream. Flanked by ferns, alder trees and vine maple, Drift Creek Trail winds through the rain-drenched Siuslaw National Forest.
