rock fish and ling cod within five minutes of leaving the beach. We’re already catching tuna. Last Sunday (July 22), we caught 35 tuna by 8 a.m.” Stiles began Eagle Charters after a 10-year commercial fishing career when he served as the captain of a 50-foot vessel that fished for shrimp, crab, salmon and black cod. He got the dory fishing bug about 15 years ago when he went out with another doryman and was so enthused about the experience that he went out and bought a dory the next week. Stiles commercial fished aboard a dory for three years before venturing into his charter business. Eagle Charters customers fish for rockfish/seabass, halibut, lingcod, cabazon, Albacore Tuna, Dungeness Crab, Salmon and Steelhead — depending on the season. Advanced booking is recommended. Trips leave the beach at Cape Kiwanda between 5:30 and 6 a.m. For more information, visit eaglechartersfishing.com or call 877-892-3679. Advanced bookings are highly recommended.

agle Charters’ July 13 trip to the fabled fishing grounds off of Cape Kiwanda meant a boatload of bounty for four lucky fishing enthusiasts who limited out on halibut, ling cod and rockfish. Of the four halibut caught that day, none was smaller than 46 pounds. The largest fish was a 87-pound flattie. “I just like everybody to have a really good experience,” said Dave Stiles, a US Coast Guard Master Licensed Captain, who started Eagle Charters in 2002. Though halibut season is closed until a series of two-day seasons starting on Aug. 3, Stiles says there’s plenty of fishing opportunities in the Pacific. It’s still open season on chinook salmon, ling cod and rockfish. Fishing for coho is open through the end of July. “(Dory fishing) is such a unique fishery — everybody needs to experience it,” he said. “We’re catching

Skating at the Cape? Nestucca Valley Community Alliance votes to include skate park in upcoming community park near Cape Kiwanda By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun
C
iting the need to develop a park that will address the interests of all age groups, the Nestucca Valley Community Alliance’s board of directors voted 5-0 on July 18 to include a small skate park of 6,000 square feet or less into its plans for a community park on the grounds of Tillamook Light Wave’s cable landing station, located just east of Cape Kiwanda. The proposed park, which NVCA President Gloria Scullin hopes to have a conceptual plan in place for in August, will also include a picnic area, children’s playground, adult playground, an amphitheater that will seat 50-60 people, a covered activity area and an interpretive center for educational and cultural use. Scullin said the decision to include a skate park was based on several factors including the community support at the July 16 Pacific City-Woods Community Planning Advisory Committee meeting. “There is a population in South Tillamook County that could really utilize (a skate park),” said Scullin. “(At the CPAC meeting), people discussed issues, noise and safety but I don’t think anybody there said, ‘No, we don’t want a skate
park.’ It was more are you going to manage it correctly, and are you going to take care of those issues we’re concerned about.” She said other contributing factors on the decision included results from a fact-finding mission that revealed the positive attributes of community skate parks, the commitment of at least 12 individuals to volunteer to help with the skate park, and the availability of funds to support it. The Cape Kiwanda Longboard Classic, held this year on Sept. 21-23, annually sets aside funds raised during the event for the construction of a skate park. “Skate boarding is really becoming a family event,” said Scullin. “It looks like the community is ready to help with it. A lot of young people will put in the effort, and that is very impressive.” The development of the park and the associated uses still faces several hurdles including signing a lease and a revocable license for the use of the area with Tillamook Lightwave. NVCA will also need to have both a conceptual plan and engineered site plan crafted so they can show to TLC Credit Union, which is servicing TLW’s loan for the property. NVCA will have to get the credit union’s approval for any construc-
tion project prior to construction as TLC wants to protect their investment. In the case of public uses, the construction of permanent facilities are often cited for decreased property value. Scullin said that the credit union has already indicated that a building such as the proposed interpretive center would not be allowed until the debt was paid down to a still to be determined amount. She hopes to meet with TLC in late August to early September to present their plans and get a schedule that would outline what can be constructed and when. Also on tap for the NVCA is the election of new officers, which will take place at its annual meeting on Aug. 11. The meeting starts at 10 a.m. at Kiawanda Community Center. In addition, the group is investigating ways to hasten the IRS’s review of their application for nonprofit status. Currently the IRS is assigning agents for applications received by November 2011, but the NVCA did not apply for 501c3 status until last February. Scullin said the group is in discussion with its legal counsel considering the possibility of applying to have their application expedited.

Hoisted to Safety Coast Guard lifts man stranded by incoming tides to safety during July 21 rescue
T
he Coast Guard rescued a Vancouver, Wash. youth stranded on the rocks at Cape Kiwanda, on Saturday, July 21. At approximately 6:10 p.m., Nestucca Fire requested helicopter assistance from Coast Guard Sector Columbia River, located in Astoria, Ore., to lend assistance to a 16-year-old male who was stranded on some rocks at Cape Kiwanda, approximately one mile northwest of Pacific City. Sector Columbia River launched an MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter crew to assist local search-and-rescue crews who could not reach the youth. The helicopter crew arrived on scene and lowered a rescue swimmer. The crew then hoisted him to the helicopter and transported him to awaiting EMS crews. No injuries were reported. The youth, whose identity authorities could not confirm at press time, had
climbed down to the punchbowl located on the north side of the sand dune at Cape Kiwanda. Nestucca Fire Chief Kris Weiland said that the victim had found himself out in the tidepool when the tide started coming in and surf kicked up. “He panicked and didn’t want to get off the rock,” said Weiland. “He was afraid of drowning or getting swept off.” Though the punchbowl area is fenced off and warning signs are posted, the area is a popular spot for Cape explorers to visit. “People have to be cautious of their surroundings and have situational awareness,” said Weiland. “Even down on the beach, the tides come in and can surround your vehicle. It’s important that you don’t lose track of what’s going down on the beach.”

None injured in July 22 collapse of sandstone cliff at Cape Kiwanda By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun
A
30- to 50-foot section of sandstone cliff broke off just above the punchbowl north of the Cape Kiwanda dune on Sunday, July 22. Though initial bystander reports had as many as five people who were in harms way, in short order witnesses were able to account for everyone in the area and no one was hurt. “We saw hikers at the base of the cliff and turned our backs to it and less than a minute later we heard a thunder,” said eyewitness Michael Everton, of Dallas, Ore. “We turned around and the whole cliff face was coming off right where (people) were. I called 911 because I didn’t see them anymore. “Fifteen or 20 mintues later some people came walking up and they said
they had just gotten out of the area and not even a minute (before it came down).” Responding to the incident were Nestucca Fire, Oregon State Parks and a local ambulance company. Nestucca Fire Chief Kris Weiland said that he received the dispatch call at 2:08 p.m. and had wrapped up command operations by 3:15 p.m. Weiland said it was again a case of situational awareness when you’re around an area prone to erosion such as Cape Kiwanda. “I kind of liken it to when I worked at a ski resort,” said Weiland. “Anytime you’re up on a mountain — especially where you have a chance at erosion — you have to be careful. The sand is constantly moving around. You could be standing on something with nothing underneath (to support it). When the weight hits a certain point, it will release.”

Birds ‘n Berries
Wildlife Refuge guided walk to highlight birds of summer, ripening berries during July 28 hike
W
hether you’re a fledgling birder, an accomplished avian enthusiast or you just want to learn about fruits on the vine, the Nestucca Bay National Wildlife Refuge promises a unique experience at one of the most scenic hikes around on Saturday, July 28. “Birds and Berries,” a free two-hour hike hosted by longtime birder Dick Demarest, will meet at 8 a.m. at the refuge’s lower parking lot and take outdoors lovers to the top of the Pacific Crest Trail. On the way they’ll see a variety of wildlife and ecosystems. Birds expected to be in the area include Black-headed Grosbeak, Purple Finch, Song Sparrow, Hairy Woodpecker, Rufous Hummingbird and more. Berries will include Salmonberry, Salal Berry, Thimbleberry, and Himalayan Blackberry. “The hike is well suited for families and for people that are new to birding,”
said Demarest, who began bird watching at the tender age of 10 and has been leading walks for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, as well as Portland and Lincoln City chapters of Audubon Society, for 15 years. “One thing about birding is you always see things you don’t expect to see,” he said. “This is a wonderful place to learn about birds. I expect to see about 15 species on the hike — maybe more.” Nestucca Bay National Wildlife Refuge is located on the west side of Highway 101 approximately six miles south of Pacific City. To visit the refuge turn west off Highway 101 onto Christensen Road and proceed a half-mile to the parking lot. The refuge has a volunteer living onsite to answer questions for visitors and to maintain the grounds. For more information, visit www. fws. gov/oregoncoast/nestuccabay/.

THE THIRD ANNUAL Cedar Creek Beach Challenge will take to the sands near Cape Kiwanda for a 5K/10K race, 5K walk and half-mile kids’ run on Sunday, Aug. 5. Registration for the Cedar Creek Child Care Center fundraiser is available online at www. cedarcreekchildcarecenter.com.
A Seaside Sprint Runners, walkers to line-up for 3rd annual Cedar Creek Challenge on Sunday, Aug. 5 By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun
B
elieve that Pacific City’s miles of beach is just about beachcombing, sunbathing and frolicking in the sand? Then it’s time to put a new thinking cap on. The four-mile stretch from Cape Kiwanda to the Nestucca Spit also offers a scenic and fun stretch to test your fitness — a fact local runners know and love. And for the third straight year, athletes of all ages and skill levels can test their conditioning at the Cedar Creek Beach Challenge on Sunday, Aug. 5. The contest features 5K and 10K runs, a 5K walk and a kids half-mile race. The professionally timed race, which will take off from the beach in front of the Pelican Pub & Brewery at 9 a.m., benefits the Cedar Creek Child Care Center. Carefully timed with a low tide and the accompanying hard packed sand — conditions perfect for an up-and-back race on the beach — the race is one of a select few beach runs in Oregon. “It’s a good family event and something the community can be proud of. Hopefully we can draw people into the area and do good things for the community,” said event organizer Jennie Seals. Last year’s event attracted more than 80 participants, but through the hiring of a professional management company and increased promotion to Portland and Salem areas, organizers hope to attract more than 100 runners in this, its third incarnation. Runners and walkers can register online for the event at www.cedarcreekchildcarecenter.com or at the day of the
event. Registration is $30 for the 5K and 10K runs and $15 for the kids’ run (open to 12 and under) and the 5K walk. But to Seals, this running event is more than about providing a chance for runners to lace up their Nikes and showcase their hard-earned fitness level. “The primary goal is to make some good money for Cedar Creek,” said Seals, who is also a board member of the childcare facility. “It’s super important because (Cedar Creek) is the only childcare center in South Tillamook County. We’re crucially important to the economy of South Tillamook County because if people can’t find reliable and safe child care for kids, they can’t work. And if they don’t work, they can’t spend money.” As a fixture in the community for 20 years, Seals bills Cedar Creek as a reliable place for parents to send their kids for fun and enrichment while they’re at work. “We have a great facility,” she says.

Cedar Creek Director Diane Wilkinson, who has been on the job since June 4, says funds raised from the race will go toward a savings account. She says the center hopes to add a number of improvements to Cedar Creek — including an upgraded playground this summer — with the funds. Cedar Creek, located at 30720 Highway 101 in Hebo, is currently in the midst of an upgraded summer program which includes weekly themes, field trips, science projects and Spanish language instruction. Open from 7 a.m.-6 p.m. Monday through Friday except major holidays, the center has four classrooms and serves children from nursery age (0-3 years) to sixth grade students. They serve USDA approved breakfast and lunches as well as an afternoon snack and employ three qualified teachers with plans to hire a fourth. The 7,000 square foot facility is also working on developing a working relationship with Nestucca Valley Elementary School so students are ready to hit the ground running when they move from pre-school to kindergarten. “This is an environment that’s an extension of (the children’s) home. It’s a caring environment,” said Wilkinson. She says the center is also committed to an open-door policy to the community. They will be serving hot dogs during the Route 101 Cruise-In on Saturday, June 28 and are offering their facility for community meetings at no charge.

Tillamook County Considering Phasing Out Tsunami Sirens with Newer Technology
T
illamook County, together with its local cities and fire departments, is considering the phase out of their antiquated tsunami sirens in favor of newer and likely more effective technology. “The sirens we have in place along our coastline were previously used at the Trojan Nuclear Power Plant and were acquired following the decommissioning of that nuclear power plant almost 20 years ago” said Michael Soots, IT Director for Tillamook County. “We can’t get parts for them anymore and after this December they will no longer be compatible with the new federal requirements for narrow band frequencies.” Representatives from most of the local cities, fire departments, 911, State Parks and the US Forest Service met with County officials on July 16 to discuss the age and effectiveness of the old sirens, given new mapping information recently received from the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI). The new Tsunami Inundation Maps provide a worst case scenario of a “Distance Tsunami” showing that people need to evacuate the beaches and low lying areas directly near the ocean and that they will have several hours of warning to do so. “The new maps show we don’t need to evacuate ½ mile from the ocean like we did in the March 2011 Japan distance Tsunami Event” said Gordon McCraw, Tillamook County Emergency Manager. “But the new information is also quite clear that if we have a close in or local Subduction Zone Earthquake off our coastline, the several minutes of violent ground shaking will be our early warning of an impending near-shore tsunami and everyone must evacuate from the beaches and adjoining low lying areas immediately and seek higher ground because the tsunami likely will be coming ashore within 20 to 30 minutes. “The sirens do not deliver the proper message to the proper audience. When a siren sounds, it tells people to take immediate action. In a distance Tsunami, with the new technology we have available, we will have hours of warning to evacuate the beaches. More often than not, sounding the sirens causes panic in areas which are not in any danger,” added McCraw. “The new information about distance tsunamis indicates very markedly that only certain areas are in danger and notifications by a siren sounding broadly outside the evacuation area cause undue panic and stress law enforcement and first responder resources unnecessarily. “We have a number of newer Tools in the Tool Box available today that are far more effective than sirens. Most people now have cell phones and communicate rapidly through Twitter, Facebook and NIXEL. In addition, Tillamook County recently purchased two, newer technology, Airborne Loudspeaker Systems through a grant from the Oregon State Office of Emergency Management (OEM) that have been outfitted in Oregon Civil Air Patrol planes. Another OEM grant allowed the county to acquire two similar portable vehicle loudspeaker systems that can be used to warn people along the beaches,” he said. “Tillamook County also recently received several more portable loud speaker systems from the State Office of Emergency Management following the decommissioning of the Boardman facil-
ity,” said Soots. “These will be made available free to county-wide fire departments for use as loudspeakers in patrolling the beaches and warning beachgoers in the event of a distance tsunami. Tillamook County also has 911 Alerts in place to make reverse phone calls to warn folks and we still have the traditional forms of communication such as the radio and TV,” added McCraw. Tillamook County Emergency Management and elected officials were supportive of gradually phasing out the old sirens and phasing into newer early warning technology. Nehalem Bay Fire Chief Perry Sherbaugh says that the technology is in place now. “When Manzanita installed their sirens in 1992, we didn’t have cell phones or the internet,” said Sherbaugh. “We were told that if a tsunami warning happens, distant or local event, sound the sirens and move to high ground. With the new information we now have about the distant tsunami inundation area, that is simply not the case. Sirens mean take immediate action. In a local event, the severe ground shaking is your warning to move to high ground. In a distant event we have plenty of time to evacuate our beaches and bay fronts. The key is for people to get educated on the difference and the geographic area in which you live, visit or work because some areas have more severe inundation than others.” Similarly, Nehalem Mayor Shirley Kalkoven said that though the old Trojan warning sirens served us well for many years, they reached the end of their lives. “New federal frequencies coming on line in January, 2013 will render them technically obsolete,” she said. “In the meantime, new technologies for alerting us to tsunami events are here and are available for use. Our emergency planners are putting plans for these devices in place and we all need to educate ourselves about them and also help visitors to our coast become aware of these new systems. The experience of the March 2011 tsunami was a great teacher, and, along with the new maps from DOGAMI, show us what we need to do to protect ourselves in any future events.” “Most of the sirens currently installed are operating with control units dating from 1980 and earlier,” adds Soots. “The control units use mechanical timers and transistors of the time. These parts are no longer available. In order to repair the units, other units must be disassembled for parts. Two years ago, the last electronics repair person willing to work on these units retired. Since then, repairs have been performed only by complete replacement from the rapidly dwindling supply of working spares. On January 1, 2013, the FCC narrow banding requirement goes into effect. This mandate will make it illegal to transmit the signal for which the older units were designed. Unless upgrades are in place by that date, we would be using the siren control system outside their design specification, without factory assurance that they would operate. Upgrading the older sirens to the new standard will cost approximately $1,700 per unit (almost $39,000 for all the upgrades necessary), and would provide no other benefit. To simply continue using the same system would cost almost $39,000!”

Coloring the Coast Artist reception to fete painter Merrie Jo Snow, featured at Stimulus Café through Sept. 7
T
he scenic beauty of the Oregon Coast has many faces, but few artists captures the beauties of the beach like painter Merrie Jo Snow. Art lovers can get a glimpse of Snow’s impressionistic talents now through Sept. 7 at Stimulus Espresso Café and meet the artist Saturday, July 28 when the popular ocean view spot celebrates her work with an artist reception from 6-8 p.m. Trained as an oil painter, Snow received her bachelor’s in fine arts in studio painting and drawing from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago where her areas of study included painting, drawing, sculpture and digital photography. She also studied conceptual landscape painting at Oxbow School of Art, Saugatuck, Mich. With a body of work that’s impressionistic in nature, Snow says she’s inspired by the dramatic shoreline of the Pacific Northwest and the colorful, tropical landscape of south Florida. She works on paper and canvas in various mediums including oil, acrylic, watercolor, pastel, pencil and charcoal. In 2007, Snow spent a year painting on location in Malmo, Sweden in the region called Skane, in the southern part of Sweden. It was there she had her first
international one-woman show of 26 paintings at Gallery Ronnquist and Ronnquist on Lilla Torg Square in Malmo in July 2007. Her work has been juried into various galleries including 2 Islands Gallery at South Seas Resort on Captiva, the Phillips Gallery on Sanibel Island, and the Von Liebig Center in Naples, Florida. Snow’s paintings can be found in private collections across the U.S. including Los Angeles, New York, Washington D.C. and internationally including Sweden and Denmark. Snow spends the summers working on location on the Oregon Coast and in her Pacific City studio. During the fall and winter, she paints on location on Sanibel and Captiva islands and in her studio on Fort Myers Beach, Florida. Located at the Inn at Cape Kiwanda in Pacific City at 33105 Cape Kiwanda Drive, Stimulus Espresso Café offers ocean views and serves locally roasted coffees from Five Rivers Coffee Roasters, hot breakfast sandwiches, unique sodas and treats, and pastries made by the Pelican Pub & Brewery. Stimulus also features a rotating art gallery, displaying various works of local artists, and complimentary Wi-Fi. For more information, visit www.StimulusCafe.com.

W
ith everything from a downtown parade to live music at the Cape, from children’s activities to fishing contests, and from a time-honored fish fry to a classic double-ender dory rowing exhibition, Dory Days, held July 20-22 in Pacific City offered a glimpse into the past and a reaffirmation of the present state of the dory fleet. The 53rd annual event was declared an all-around success by committee chair Ken Henson. “We had a lot of great people that added a lot to the festival this year,” said Henson. “I thought it was great cooperation between the Dorymen’s Association and the (Pacific City-Nestucca Valley) Chamber. And the kids’ events were a great addition.” Though not all bills had been accounted for at press time, Henson estimated that the event netted approximately $10,000, profit that the Chamber and Dorymen’s Association will split.
Though the Chamber charges a small fee for parade entries, the bulk of the proceeds come courtesy of the fish fry. “I thought the fish fry was very well attended,” said Henson. “It felt like record crowds on Saturday. The whole Cape was hopping with people as was the (downtown) Artisan Fair. We went through about 500 pounds of fish.” The Saturday parade also brought in throngs to watch more than 50 floats travel from Bob Straub State Park to Chester’s grocery store. Trophy winners were not available from the Chamber at press time. Sunday events included a series of fishing contests, as well as a fillet contest. In the fishing contest, Ken Kuderer, fishing aboard the Hap’e Hook’r, won first place in both the biggest fish and biggest legal limit categories — good enough to earn him a $110 crab pot and $150 Penn fishing reel courtesy of Englund Marine. And it was the continued dominance — though by a narrower margin — of now three-time champion John Eckhardt in the fillet contest. In the finals, Eckhardt

filleted two fish less than 4 seconds faster than runner-up Bill Hook. Eckhardt’s winning time was 1:18.47. “This was a pretty good contest,” said organizer Tom Donohue. “It was quite a battle.” In the preliminaries, the event showed that even the uninitiated can have a little fun with a fillet knife. Visitors Garen Thatcher, who had never filleted a fish before, and his 20-year-old daughter Elaine, who had only done so once, each had a go of it in round one. Garen filleted his fish in 1:36.97 and Elaine in 3:56.75. And while they weren’t in contention for the title, the pair both said they had so much fun that they’d be back. The weekend of dories and family fun wrapped up with a color guard ceremony at the Dorymen’s Memorial Wall followed by the double-ender dory rowing exhbition. “I thought it was really cool to bring that history of dorymen to the festival,” said Henson. “Rowing out in the surf — it doesn’t get any more historical — or fun — than that.”

FAST WITH THE KNIFE! John Eckhardt bested the competition for the third year in a row during a fish filleting contest held Sunday, July 22. Though the contest has historically attracted experienced fishermen and chefs, that didn’t keep Vancouver, Wash. residents Garen and Elaine Thatcher from giving it the old college try. Below, 20-year-old Elaine puts in her best effort.
THIS YEAR’S DORY DAYS theme was “Glory to the Dory,” a slogan that many of the boats that made up Saturday’s parade paid tribute to.

The long-running event which raised funds for the Esther Milne Scholarship Fund came to a graceful end. Guests at the tea lingered over beverages and bites, walking slowly amongst the beautiful flowers, shrubbery, plants and trees, a plethora of colors within a palette of green, cooled by the gentle breezes blowing in off the Pacific. Sear’s held the event in her spectacular garden for a final time, honoring Milne by helping to put money into the hands of financially strapped women who wish to continue their studies. Milne believed the way to help women achieve their dreams to improve their lives was through education.

Tillamook County Library Local Author Program With Anne Sweazy-Kulju
A Slew of Steelhead
Light lines, live bait and little disturbance are keys to catching summer stealhead in the Nestucca By PAT GEFRE for the Sun While many of the other fisheries around the area are a little slow, summer steelhead on the Nestucca are in abundance. There are just not that many fishermen fishing for them. For a knowledgeable few fishermen summers this year have been incredibly good. The numbers of summer steelhead this year are definitely up from last season and compare favorably to a couple of years ago when we had one of the best seasons ever. Joe Hulburt from Cedar Creek Hatchery visited the shop this morning and echoed pretty much what I just stated. He said there are many steelhead up at the hatchery, so many in fact, that they are about to round some of them up and recycle them downstream to let fishermen have another chance at catching the fish that are now at the hatchery. I like this policy, especially since Three Rivers is closed to all fishing from the mouth to the hatchery. It gives fishermen another chance at intercepting summers in the Nestucca where it’s legal to fish for them. Summer steelhead are being reported all throughout the Nestucca system. I see them being landed behind my house between First Bridge and Farmer Creek every day. Other fishermen and residents alike, that visit the store, are doing very well in the upper river as well. I have often repeated this advice, but it is worth giving again because it is absolute truth. The key to catching summer steelhead is light lines, small hooks and offerings, and don’t wade the water. Drop down to six pound line, #4 or #6 hooks baits no larger than a nickel. Stay as far back on the bank as would allow you make the cast you want to make. Any disturbance in the water is immediately picked up by steelhead and instantly puts them on high alert, and often promotes lock law (no biters). Using live bait is almost always the best bet.
By comparison, winter water is high, moving fast and winter fish will strike anything bright moving quickly by. Summer steelhead do exactly the opposite. The water now is low and clear and slow moving. Summers have very keen sight and have the luxury of really looking over your bait — it really helps having live bait that emits a scent. The scent just helps assure summers that the bait is natural and helps them make up their minds to bite. The exception to that would be spinner fishing. In summer, spinners are often fished in rapids, fast water or white water. A faster moving bait in faster water will get summers to strike without taking a good look at the offering. Ocean fishing has so far been a mixed bag. While coho salmon fishing just hasn’t really materialized, tuna fishing has been great recently. On July 23 and 24, we had reports from fishermen that tuna were as close as 11 miles off shore, with lots of fish being caught between 11 and 18 miles out. Numbers were good and the size has improved to 20- to 28-pounders making up the catch. Bottom fishing, depending on who you talk to has been slow to good. Some days, are better than others. Ling cod have been pretty good on most days. I’m told that sea bass have been off a bit this year. Folks are catching them but not in good numbers. In years past, many fishermen would look for finning schools of sea bass on the surface and cast to them and catch limits right off. This year, fishermen seem to not be seeing much in the way of finning schools of bass, rather they are catching them here and there while fishing on the bottom for lings. Crabbing has been excellent and continues to be so. Several of the dory fishermen report having more than an entire limit in each pot. That’s pretty decent crabbing. The condition of dungeness crabs this year has improved early this season. Crabs are starting to harden up and fill up with sweet meat.

AN EARLY PHOTO POSTCARD of Three Arch Rocks, located one-half mile off the beach in Oceanside, depicts the 15-mile area that is now one of the smallest National Wildlife Refuges managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
Rescuing the Roost
Early 20th century naturalistsWilliam Finley and Herman Bohlman credited with preservation of Three Arch Rocks By SALLY RISSEL for the Sun
W
hen driving the Three Capes Scenic Route, one of the most photographed sites is the three large rocks off the beach in the town of Oceanside. On July 6, 1778, these rocks were christened “The Three Brothers” by Captain Mears, but years later were named Three Arch Rocks. The 15 acres of three large and six smaller rocks are now a U.S. Fish and Wildlife National Wildlife Refuge managed by the USFWS Oregon Coast Complex, which is based in Newport. The story of how this isolated spot obtained this recognition is an amazing story. Naturalists William Finley and Herman Bohlman came to Oceanside in 1901 to photograph seabirds. They witnessed the seagoing tug “Vosberg” of Tillamook running Sunday excursion parties out to the rocks to hunt sea lions and letting the passengers practice marksmanship on the birds sitting on the cliffs. The following day the surf line was strewn with dead bodies of Cormorants and Murres. They returned in June 1903 to Oceanside (this whole area was referred to as Netarts at the time) and decided to go out onto the rocks to photograph and document what birds were nesting there. They spent over a week on the beach, in incessant rains, waiting for a chance to row their 14-foot dory to the rocks. They had three failed attempts of being tossed into the waves before getting the right conditions to make it to the furthest rock. As they approached the rocks, the noise was deafening with thousands of bird screeching and the bellows and barks from seals and sea lions, plus the smell of guano. They dislodged a sea lion off a narrow ledge 10 feet above the sea to anchor their boat and climbed 30 feet higher to a small rift to set up camp. The next day they climbed the 200-foot rock wall, trying to not disturb too many birds. Their camera equipment was heavy, large and bulky. The rocks were slippery with bird dropping and sprinkled with Common Murre eggs on narrow ledges. The bird droppings were as much to 3- to 4-feet deep in some places as Tuffed Puffins burrow into the guano to make their nests. They spent 14 days on the rocks convinced that this was one of the richest and most diverse wildlife habitats they had seen, and it needed to be protected. The duo developed their pictures and traveled to Washington D.C. to show President Roosevelt and convince him to designate the area as a Wildlife Refuge. Roosevelt was impressed and said he would protect the area. They lobbied for four years to make sure the President would fulfill his promise. In the meantime, William and Herman worked with the Oregon Audubon Society to establish the State Model Bird Law that would outlaw sport shooting of seabirds. Once the law was passed, game wardens enforced the law in places like Three Arch Rocks. In 1907 by executive Order, President Roosevelt declared Three Page 18 • Pacific City SUN • July 27, 2012

NATURALISTS William Finley and Herman Bohlman scale one of the Three Arch Rocks during a June 1903 exhibition to document nesting birds. The duo was documenting life on the rocks as part of an effort to preserve the birds of the area, which were being used for target practice. Below, the explorers land at the rock’s base on their 14-foot dory.
Arch Rocks a National Wildlife Refuge. It was Americas third Sanctuary and the first ever on the West Coast. These basalt outcroppings are the home to 13 species of birds, and three species of pinnipeds (Harbor Seals, California and Stellar Sea Lions). It is Oregon’s largest breeding colony of Tufted Puffins and Common Murrers. Other birds using the rocks include Western Gull, Fork-tailed-Storm Petrel, Leach’s Storm-Petrel, Brandt’s Cormorant, Double-Crested Cormorant, Pelagic Cormorant, Pigeon Guillemot, Aleutian Geese, Peregrine Falcon, Bald Eagle and Brown Pelicans. At Three Capes Rocks, boats must remain 500 feet away during the summer months and aircraft 2,000 feet above the rocks. The three rocks have individual names: Finley, Middle Arch and Shag (another name for cormorant). Other named rocks are Storm Rock, left of Shag, and Seal Rock, in front of Finley. Near the shore are The Old Man of the Sea, Castle Rock and Tunnel Rock.

TOURISTS AND LOCALS alike gather in Lori Longanecker’s dining room at the Village Coffee Shoppe in Pacific City. The restaurant is open 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. seven days a week and is located at 34910 Brooten Road.
A Cozy Café
Village Coffee Shoppe offers fresh-baked bread, breakfast favorites, and lunch fare By DEE MOORE for the Sun
I
t’s not often when a business owner invites the public into her home, but when diners go into the Village Coffee Shoppe in Pacific City, they are walking right into Lori Longanecker’s dining room, or so it feels. Step through in the door and you are assailed with mouth-watering scents: frying sausage and bacon, Seattle’s Best coffee, sizzling hash browns and eggs, glorious eggs, fried, poached, scrambled, boiled and omelets, too. The only thing that separates the postage stampsize dining area from the kitchen is a glass counter displaying delicious fresh-baked bread, pastries and donuts. The maple bars, according to Longanecker are the favorite menu item. She can barely keep them around, they go so fast. No matter how busy the dining room is or how busy she is, when the door opens and the bell at top chimes, Longanecker, will turn around and give her newest customer a cheerful “Hi!” and let them know she is happy to have them spending a bit of their time with her. “I totally enjoy my customers and like what I do,” Longanecker said. “I have a lot of real regular customers.” She especially enjoys visiting with the local retirees who make her café a second home. On beautiful days, guests can sit out on the patio
that wraps around the side of the restaurant and enjoy the sunshine and be kept company by the many cats that call the coffee shop home. Never pushy, the felines mostly bask in sunny warmth while diners watch them. Longanecker, who bought the coffee shop in 1999 with her husband Everett, has slowly been giving it shape and definition, adding her personality and charm to the place. Though she had worked in restaurants and lounges before buying the shop, she had not cooked for the public before, but that did not daunt her in the least. “I am not afraid to try new things,” she said. While many chefs slave away for years in school, her culinary training consists of time honored tradition. “My grandmother taught me how to cook,” she said. She is very accommodating to her diners, if they don’t see what they are looking for on the menu, she is more than happy to make whatever they would like to eat. “I’m really easy, flexible,” Longanecker said. “It works for me.” And she never forgets an order or regular customer’s favorite dishes. “I just remember it. It’s fortunate. I don’t have to go back and ask,” she said. Longanecker offers lunch items, soup and sandwiches, as well as breakfast. The restaurant is open from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. seven days a week and is located at 34910 Brooten Road.
