Description
From Wikipedia
"The Peter Iredale was a four-masted steel barque sailing vessel that ran ashore October 25, 1906, on the Oregon coast en route to the Columbia River. It was abandoned on Clatsop Spit near Fort Stevens in Warrenton about four miles (6 km) south of the Columbia River channel. Wreckage is still visible, making it a popular tourist attraction."
The winter storms usually uncover what's left of this ship, as they have this year. By summer it will be buried under the sand again.
Thanks for stopping by and any comments. A great weekend to all.
