Best Places to Plein Air Paint in Brookings - Crissey Field State Recreation Site

Crissy Field State Recreation Site is located to the south of the Winchuck River.  The visitor center has practically any information you need to know about Oregon from  hiking to surf perch fishing.   Best of all is the view. You can paint the trees and mountains to the east.  The trails north, south, east and west. The ocean to the west or the Winchuck River to the north. All around is inspiration. A picture paints a thousand words so here it some proof.  (Yes - there are real bathrooms).
Trail going south.

View of the Pacific Ocean and Mouth of Winchuck and trail access.
View of the east including highway 101, confers, deciduous trees, field and mountains.
