Mile 245 Report
Roads End Beach, Wayside, Logan Creek
June 17, 2007
Few birds, a couple crows and seagulls.
Report Details
Few birds, a couple crows and seagulls. Large gatherings of people, such as family reunions and a group of young people clustered together. At first I thought it was a religious meet, but recognized a local doctor and saw markings for a wild game of Frisbee or some team sport with a Frisbee. Few dogs, all maintained by owners. There was a small fire at the south end and when I returned I found it was in the remains of what was a huge log shelter from last summer. An "art form" had been created that looked like a beached whale from a distance. I had to inspect to see just what it was. An art by someone.

After king tides and heavy surf, most of the usual driftwood was up nearer the bank along with minimal bull kelp.

The beach mile varied quite a bit - with the south (less traveled) section with darkened sands and clear of most debris while the north end, with more visitors, was covered in stones with more small debris (esp.

Just wanted to say there have been a lot of brown pelicans this season, more than I've ever seen, and I'm wondering if they will stay for the winter?
