A another very nice walk.
Report Details
A another very nice walk. The winter weather makes for a nice time for local residents.even though we like our tourists, we do also enjoy our winters as well. Our mile is very clean as we live in a community that polices our beaches well. We rarely see an excess of trash. This due to many reasons but mostly because our residents pick it all up.

A great day along Mile 235 on the Oregon Coast, especially for rock and shell hunters taking advantage of low tide.
