Mile 295 Report
Nedonna Beach
July 26, 2017
Typical summer beach.
Report Details
Typical summer beach. Most of the heavy drfitwood accumulation from the winter is gone ... up in smoke or used to make forts and shelters. Unlike many past years, there has not been any mowing of dune grass. Mile 294 to the south gets a lot more use and also includes the heavily eroded bluff at the south end of the Wayside and the wandering creek, which this year is 100 yards or so further north than a year ago.

It was a gorgeous sunny but quite cold afternoon, with a brisk wind from the northeast blowing sand toward the surf across a wide low-tide beach.
