Report Details

The beach is quiet although the same number of folks are there as there usually are!  No one in parking lot but parking along the street.  The erosion on the northern part of the mile is new.  We hear - but didn't see it - that there have been some unpleasant interactions with Cape Meares residents with those they deem to be "outsiders disobeying the beach closed injunction" due to the pandemic.  The community has rallied asking folks to calm down and be kind.  Very few birds..... This report is a month late due to COVID19.....
