Campers snapped up reservations to camp in Oregon State Parks along the path of the August 21, 2017 total eclipse in about an hour starting shortly after midnight today. Some state parks just outside the path of totality still have sites available, though they are expected to fill eventually. To make a reservation, visitors can go to oregonstateparks.org, navigate to a park, and click the “Reserve Online” button. Parks just outside the path of totality (http://bit.ly/OregonStateParkEclipseMap) will experience a partial eclipse. Travel on August 21, 2017 will be challenging and congestion is expected to be significant. Information about the eclipse experience in Oregon State Parks is online at http://bit.ly/OregonStateParks2017Eclipse. As of 11 a.m. today, reservable sites in the zone of a partial eclipse are available at these parks: COAST – Nehalem Bay State Park, Tillamook County; Cape Lookout State Park, Tillamook County; Jessie M. Honeyman Memorial State Park, Lane County.
