Day 210 - Clallam Bay

This is a rocky beach, but is a favorite spot for rock hounds due to the agates and other, very colorful stones.

Day 209 - Ruby Beach, Mid

This is on the Washington Coast about midway up the Olympic Penninsula. Ruby Beach is probably the most scenic beach I've ever seen (and I've seen a lot of beaches, especially on this trip)

Day 201 - Spruce Island, Small Version

We pulled over at an overlook for 'Spruce Island'. I think the sign was referring to another rock with some tree's on it, but I liked this one better.

Day 201 - Oregon Coast near Thomas Creek

I had to hike out quite a ways to try to get a shot of the Thomas Creek Bridge, so also took advantage of other coastline shots. There is a coastal trail you can hike along here, not for the faint of heart.

Day 197 - Jenner, Surf Warning

This sign meets you at the edge of the parking lot at the beach. Looking at the sign and the waves today, I had no interest in testing them.

Day 197 - Jenner, Seals in Surf

The surf my be dangerous for people, but the seals really seem to enjoy playing in it. I suspect it is also a pretty good feeding ground for them.

Day 197 - Jenner, Harbor Seals

This is about 100 feet from where the river empties into the Pacific Ocean. The seals come up onto the beach to get warm. Two volunteers keep watch during the day to keep people far enough away so they don't disturb the seals.
