Oceanside - April 5-8, 2027

Join Adrian Klein and Zack Schnepf in the Oceanside area of the Oregon Coast. This portion of the coast, offers the range of amazing opportunities you might expect on the rugged and photogenic Oregon Coastline. We will visit a beach that is normally only accessible through a short tunnel, with sea stacks on the other side. Another includes large sandstone walls, chiseled rocks, and a sand dune await us when we head south to Pacific City. In spring, we should see one or two waterfalls flowing directly onto one of the beaches, heading straight into the ocean. Depending on conditions and weather, we may visit the Ghost Forest. What I enjoy most about the Oregon Coast is the unknown of what we might see since the constant changing of tides reveals and covers on it's own schedule, changing every season and year. 

These dates were selected in part to offer a couple of opportunities with lower-than-typical low tides, which can provide a chance to find treasures to photograph ranging from interesting sand patterns to tide pools. We are based in Tillamook to be more centrally located and due to limited lodging options in the places we are photographing.

Most locations are fairly flat with short distances (< 1 mile) yet could have one location up to a couple miles and a few hundred feet elevation. Walking/hiking will be required. Locations will have paths or stairs to beaches, including one that has quite a few steps. You should be comfortable walking over varying terrain including soft sand, carrying your own gear.
Participants are responsible for transportation. Carpooling is encouraged when traveling to field locations to reduce the number of vehicles and increase opportunities for participant-to-participant interaction. All roads are paved. Possibly one short section on a beach. 
Participants are responsible for meals. We will have optional meal gatherings scheduled for the group throughout the workshop. This is a great way to interact with fellow participants.
This workshop covers a mix of field sessions and classroom time including presentations, group image reviews, and processing. Participants are encouraged to bring work to share for image reviews.
Itineraries are not shared in advance. Full schedule is handed out at the start of the workshop.
