Lucky you! It's fantastic country.

My GPS was switched off here for some reason, but I know that it was taken one hour after a picture I took in Crescent City. Big Lagoon sounds right - it was just before I checked into a hotel in McKinleyville.

Looks about right!

You still in the area? I'm still in disbelief that there are other Pentaxians out there, since I've never seen any in the wild.

No, down in SoCal now, although I much prefer the Bay Area and points north. I don't see many Pentaxes down here either. I'm on 500px, and maybe 1 in 50 posts are made by Pentax. Some guys are really good!
