Reilly - That's Bear Grass (Nolina spp) with a giant spike of flowers. Nice shot. The flower spike can reach 12 feet tall.

It looks an orchid to me but I'm sure I'll be corrected.
Southern Oregon coast...

Thanks, Nita, now I remember what the wifey said it was. I knew there aren't
orchids on the Oregon coast, sort of... ;-)

We have 2 different genus's named Bear Grass on this page. At the top of the page, eKat shows Xerophyllum spp in Glacier, a plant of the montane coniferous forests. Reilly's post is Nolina spp, closely related to the Yucca (I think), and is found in the desert.
Here's an interesting article on a fungus solving a maze:
