Worn logs piled up on a beach. Note the water rushing through the long rock arch on the right.

Comments:

Coppertone and spent most of the day in and out of the various shops in Mendocino given the mild, but persistent rain today. Still, we managed to brave the elements for a look at the trails along the Pacific Coast here. The combination arch and sink hole provided for dramatic sloshing of waves into and out of the caverns below.

We only covered perhaps a quarter of the trails here or less, but it was rainy and windy so cut our visit short.
