Thanks to Alan Contreras and others for helping us find the trail.
I was having trouble navigating the ECAS page on my iPhone
(http://www.ecaudubon.org/birding-locations) but had I  been able to I
would have learned that good directions are here
http://docs.wixstatic.com/ugd/2c5973_b5f477c8810646a59aa2c381b7e6bd6c.pdf

I made a detailed map here if anyone is interested:

B = the Dotterel Trail and D = the Deflation area where the Ruff had been
seen.

We didn't see the Ruff yesterday afternoon but we did get decent looks
at an American Bittern, a couple photos are on the eBird list here:
http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist/S38986133

We are new to the state (moved here in June), and are thankful for all
the help we got on OBOL. We had a great weekend at the shorebird
festival in the Coos Bay/Bandon area and enjoyed meeting
some Oregon birders.

Cheers,
