Reporting this dispatch because today the Beach Ranger Brian Dodge was able to retrieve the veal crate that I first reported on February 6, 2024! There was a deceased harbor porpoise / dolphin near the tide line and Brian Dodge was able to retrieve that, too. This is also an area where large amounts of debris wash up and "sticks" on the rocks.

The tide was quite low so I walked up on the rocks at the northern most end of Neahkahnie Beach. This area is always full of large marine debris from fishing boats and whatever washes in.
