Camping at Fort Stevens

Camping at Fort Stevens We camped at Fort Stevens State Park for 3 nights and visited Astoria.

Fort Stevens State Park in Oregon - what a beautiful place! We got an up-close and personal tour of the old guardhouse/prison


		The tank testing area





		At a wildlife blind. We biked throughout the whole park on the day that we rented bikes








		This section of the fort - Battery 245 - is IDENTICAL in structure to the battery at Fort Ebey


		The rifle range


The wreck of the Peter Iredale


		Miles and miles of beautiful windswept isolation is possible here...


We really enjoyed biking through the park		The bikes we rented from the nearby KOA campsite


		The observation tower














A living history demonstration		The old barracks





The moat at the Parados - old civil war era earthworks		Went down to the Columbia river to have our snack





		No idea what this is


Mine loading building


		Picnic in the grass


Getting ready to roast some marshmallows		Kenny is giving Peter "points" for giving him a head massage


Beautiful views from the Astoria Tower


		They sold 1$ gliders to be flown from the top - they were a big hit


		We had tuna fish and chips here - interesting, but I prefer halibut


		During the tram ride through downtown Astoria, we saw the old staircase from the Astoria Column
