Yachats to Waldport

April 28, 2005

The small turnout for this Yachats-Waldport walk made it easy to change plans, so instead we explored the rarely exposed splendid tidepools and rock formations south of Seal Rock. Janet called our attention to her first exciting chiton, in the wild, and as we immersed ourselves in the incredible, abundant life “on the rocks” exposed to our explorations with dry feet at the minus 1.3 low tide. We were all in awe of the wonder of this patient life force and-form while the ocean cascaded over the rocks further out. Had we walked our planned trip we would have encountered the many Razor Clam diggers, who were in force. And as always, I felt so grateful for our good fortune being so close to so much beauty, sharing with friends.

Hikers were: Yuan Hopkins, Janet Jacobsen, Sandra Larsen, Barbara Morgan and Birgitte B. Williams, leader.
