Description
From racing down the Florence dunes to reading tsunami scars in the soil, this Oregon journey reveals the West Coast at its most surprising.
We drop in on a local sandboarding competition at Honeyman State Park, where waxed boards slice over silky slopes, then follow geologist Tom Horning through Seaside and Cannon Beach as he decodes ancient tsunami layers and explains why 20 minutes could change everything. Inside Columbia Sportswear, Tim and Gertrude Boyle’s grit reshapes an outdoor brand. In the high forests near Crater Lake, a Cambodian-born picker and his wife chase the elusive Matsutake “white gold.” In Eugene, a 45-foot Marathon luxury coach is handcrafted like a rolling home, while high above the Deschutes National Forest, veteran lookout Jim Shotwell keeps watch for the first wisp of smoke.
Epic scenery, quiet resilience, and unexpected ingenuity collide. The full story ties these worlds together in ways you won’t see coming. Watch to discover what truly powers Oregon’s wild heart.
