Another sign that government doesn’t seem to care

After seeing amazing photos of the Oregon natural wonder, Thor’s Well, I traveled to Cape Perpetua National Park to go see it.  It is rarity in the world to have such an open cave tunnel perfectly placed at a raging shoreline where the water bubbles up and sinks backs down with amazing visual effect.

There were no park maps indicating where it was.

There was an area of some 500 yards where it could be, leaving people who were looking for it clueless on where it was.

The only way I discovered it was to ask a dozen people.

I took this photo of a lookout point right above it to show that there was no sign that the well even exists.  There were plenty of other signs nearby talking about plants and animals.

Thor’s Well is next to another natural wonder the Oregon Spout — which shoots up water spouts during high tide.

The Spout and Thor’s Well are in the same area!   This means you already have a natural crowd of tourists in the area to reach.

Such a wasted opportunity to promote natural wonders, tourism and Oregon uniqueness.   Instead, we witness nearly a double of our hotel taxes to pay consulting firms to run ads trying to lure people to Oregon for tourism and the same government doesn’t even take time to post a sign (which would be seen by thousands) to sell a rare natural wonder.

Please visit Thor’s Well and the Oregon Spout and support Oregon tourism despite the underselling. (Note: you need to visit during high tides to enjoy the full effect)
