Often considered as 360 miles of scenic perfection, Oregon's stunning coastline is dotted with dramatic beaches, peaceful coves and picturesque sea stacks ... all accented with gorgeous sunsets.
Along with the outstanding scenic beauty here at Devils Elbow, the mountainous coastline came with quite a few challenges during highway construction. Here at milepost 178 and the Heceta Head Lighthouse Scenic Overlook, a combination tunnel and bridge was needed to complete this section of U. S. Route 101 in 1932. Designed by Conde McCullough, the reinforced concrete bridge stretches 619 feet over the Cape Creek Gorge. The parabolic arch and adjacent two-tiered column of arch sections are viewed as an engineering masterpiece. Recognized with its addition to the National Register of Historic Places, the bridge creates one more picturesque element on the exceptional Pacific Coast Scenic Byway.

Born in western Pennsylvania, Ben quickly discovered that his parents were passionate about travel, photography, oil painting and wildlife. Being the youngest member of his family, he grew up exploring much of the eastern half of the United States at an early age with his older brothers. Ben's photography is about that part of his youth, echoing that same passion that his parents had of the Great Outdoors. Visit
