Report Details

Storms and King Tides have left their mark on this mile, eating away at both sand and beach vegetation. Logs are also much more numerous than usual, though not as concentrated as in the half mile to the south. Two people and one dog were out on this 34-degree but clear morning. Some gulls and the ever-present crow contingent were there as well. Not much litter; it's probably buried under logs somewhere.

Rock hunters delight in this otherwise boring stretch of beach; 3 were mining away in a big bed of small stones despite heavy fog and their 4 at-large dogs.
