These offshore rock outcroppings must only appear at a minus tide as we had never seen them before. |
Sand is gone from much of the beach leaving a rocky bottom. |
A beached and broken crab pot |
The dune is now a vertical cliff to the beach |
The Cape and Haystack Rock in the distance |
Once isolated by water, this "castle" formation is now accessible from the rocky shore. |
And 3 people with their 2 dogs were climbing all over it. |
This is "my" mile of Oregon beach, looking north. Cape Lookout is way off in the distance. |
The cape is being eroded by the relentless ocean |
"my" mile looking north again across the exposed rocks |

The dune now has a sheer drop to the beach |
This gull was feasting on a dead crab |
It was beautiful weather, cloudy and warm. It started to sprinkle just as I left.
The resident Peregrine Falcon kept watch the entire time I walked his beach. |
