Mile 290

Barview Jetty County Park, Camp Magruder south

June 26, 2026

It was great to walk my mile with Rachel and Denise with Ocean Shores. We were unable to remove a large pile of debris, including two large styrofoam blocks, and reported the issue to Nehalem Bay State Parks ranger. There were newly exposed tree roots and fallen trees along the Camp McGruder frontage, see photos.
