Details
The entrance of the canyon is near Oregon Route 47 north of the Sunset Highway. The elevation of the canyon at this point is 315 feet (96 m) above sea level. Hares Canyon is drained by Williams Creek which then drains to the West Fork of Dairy Creek and on to the Tualatin River. A Port of Tillamook Bay Railroad line runs through the canyon, while a former rail line through the canyon became part of the Banks–Vernonia State Trail. Other portions of Hare’s Canyon are within L.L. "Stub" Stewart Memorial State Park which opened in 2007. The namesake of the canyon, Joseph Hare (son of Oregon Senator William D. Hare), was a local lumberman.

Famous quotes containing the word details:
“Then he told the news media
the strange details of his death
and they hammered him up in the marketplace
and sold him and sold him and sold him.
My death the same.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“Patience is a most necessary qualification for business; many a man would rather you heard his story than granted his request. One must seem to hear the unreasonable demands of the petulant, unmoved, and the tedious details of the dull, untired. That is the least price that a man must pay for a high station.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“There was a time when the average reader read a novel simply for the moral he could get out of it, and however naïve that may have been, it was a good deal less naïve than some of the limited objectives he has now. Today novels are considered to be entirely concerned with the social or economic or psychological forces that they will by necessity exhibit, or with those details of daily life that are for the good novelist only means to some deeper end.”
—Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)
