Report Details
This is my first report for Mile 195, which I walked on Labor Day evening, starting 1/4 mile south at Smelt Sands State Park. I made a round trip with my dog from 6:00-7:45 p.m. Counts (27 persons and 7 dogs) are reported only for the northward leg. There were slightly more visitors than usually seen on my walks here, likely because of the holiday weekend. No unusual debris or human activity was seen.

Walking north oh Wayside Lodge I saw 15 or so dead Black Turnstone. That was the only species of bird that was dead. Lots of plastic bottles that I picked up.

I was just curious if a person who is knowledgeable about geology could explain what I'm seeing in the cliff here?

Walking mile 195 has resumed, now that steps from the 804 trail to the beach, in the middle of the mile, are back up.

It was the best day in quite a while for trail and beach walking--warm and dry.
