Jewell Meadows
Tucked in the Fishhawk Creek Valley of the Oregon coast range, next to the tiny village of Jewell, a mile-long stretch of Highway 202 passes neatly-trimmed meadows. The Jewell Meadows Wildlife Area is managed to provide winter habitat and supplemental feeding for Roosevelt elk. Open pastures border a state highway, offering excellent viewing of up to 200 elk during winter and spring.
