New journeys into the vast unknown as most beach sand has been thoughtfully redistributed.  Everything you know is wrong and finding the path to right is a worthy one.  Heavy NW swell remains active and evolving within the rising tides.  Overnight gusts have since calmed and a groomed appearance awaits.  Clear, dry and 39F outside.  Water temp dips to 52F.  Countless options are at your fingertips.



CHANNEL: High and not dry with the peaking tide.  A push not needed has most waves thick and overflowing.  Migratory sands have spawned unfamiliar bars that require exploration and a learning curve.  From directly in front of the boat ramp proper all along the southern coast there are potential poppers and forming faces.  Lower tide is a friendlier atmosphere but there is game afoot.  Size estimated at shoulder or better. Welcome to the new normal. 



PATCH: A plethora of peaks and patronage as well.  Not quite too much water yet but pushing up to the climax.  This swell has enough energy to override water levels and access will require the long paddle rather than walk.  Rights and lefts with chest high determination are visibly altering our perception of the region.
