Surfing in the NW is gnarly, man. You have to bundle up - drive forever, pray for sun and good surf conditions....but when it all happens - it's magical. A 90 minute drive each way to the nearest break turns a surf session into a whole day's trip. They call it Smuggler's Cove. A tucked away sandy beach with a 1/2 mile hike thru old growth forrest, dripping ferns, a rushing creek and a swinging bridge. Shoulder high sun-spattered lefts and rights made my 3 & a half hour session one to be remembered.
