Trip Report

Lovely hike through low coastal sand dunes ecosystem, then along the beach and to a fresh water lake. Hike back through high dunes and forest ecosystems. We enjoyed very interesting and unusual beach formations today during very low tide and a sea lion basking on the sand as we approached. Extreme dryness was observed on the trails and in the forest ecosystem, the sand being so dry that it was literally groaning under our feet.
