Report Details
Arrived at Mile 246 around 12:30 pm and ended the walk about 2:30pm. During my time there I saw 40 people and 8 dogs. I am not counting the 2 people and 2 dogs that came with me. Saw quite a few shrimp and crab casings along with lots of mussel clusters, some with banacles attached to them. Didn't see any water flowing down the dry streams, the tide was out so access to the rock areas was very accessible with dry pools. The tree at the top of the hill is still clinging to the rocks above. The beach was exceptionally clean, I collected 2 plastic ropes, 1 starbucks cup, a motts snack package and a clump of plastic twine attached to each other.

The tide was somewhat high and there were a large concentration of small rocks that people were sorting through.
