Report Details

Nice sunny day. Ive never seen so much of the beach. The tide was so low we could walk out for 1/2 a mile or so where it is usually under water. Small plane flying over head, a few driftwood forts nothing that looked new. The outfall from the drainages are very discolored and appear to have growth in them. Pics attached we were impressed there was not very much trash on the beaches. There didn't appear to be any new erosion.

We went as a field trip with all our 6th graders from Crestview Heights in Waldport, Oregon. We did notice an abundance of what appeared to be new driftwood.
