Details:

Knowledge of the remarkable scenery that makes the coast of the state of Oregon one of the beauty spots of America has been the property of comparatively such a small number of people that the Gaumont Company is rendering a distinct service in showing pictures of the rocky coast in this issue of “See America First.” The pictures have been taken in the vicinity of Tillamook Rock Lighthouse, a landmark on the coast about fifteen miles south of where the Columbia River runs into the ocean. Among the beautiful pictures so characteristic of the coast are views of the giant step stones at Chapman’s Point, Lost Cave at Ecola Point, the Needles, an interesting rock formation; Tillamook Rock, rising 80 feet above the sea; Arch Cape, Castle Rock, Hug Point, Camel Rock and Haystack Rock. The names themselves are descriptive of the shapes into which wind, water and weather have carved the coast during countless ages. Pretty summer cottages nestle among the pines along the shore above the beach, the woods are traversed by many trails, and strong winds have twisted the pine trees into grotesque shapes. Tillamook Rock, several miles at sea, is so rugged that not even a small boat can land there. There are attractive pictures of sunlight ripples on the water just before a storm, the breakers at Arch Cape, and the old iron cannon washed ashore with the wreckage of the U.S.S. Shark, which was broken up here by the waves in 1846.
