Report Details

It was my second time visiting mile 222. It was a gorgeous day and 63 degrees. People I encountered were enjoying the day walking their dogs. There was an exposed old tree root from a Spruce tree on beach. It actually was pretty beautiful. It probably was there years ago.I noticed a yellow bouy marked 103. Did not notice any other fish, etc. washed up on beach except that. I discovered a way down to beach as lots of construction on road around Beverly Beach exit. It is old wagon road down to beach.
