Pics of the Day
for July 28, 29 ~ Hubbards Creek Beach
Saturday,
07-29-2000
~ Sunny and
warm again this morning. Today's update will have to be quick, we're scheduled
to look at a new listing in Cedar Terrace at 10:00 AM. We finish up our hike on
Hubbards Creek Beach today with some photos taken from the south side of the
Battle Rock Beach seastacks and near the north end of Hubbards Creek Beach. The
photo on the right is Monkey Rock, photos below show two of the seastacks at Red
Fish Rocks, and Monkey Rock again in landscape format.
  
Our next set of pictures showcase how the sand
and beach patterns can dramatically alter the look of similar images. The first
pic was shot near the surfline looking back at Hubbards Creek Beach with the
colors of the hillsides reflecting on the undulating shoreline, next is Humbug
Mountain casting it's reflection upon the sand, and our last pic features some
interesting sand patterns with Hubbards Creek Beach in the background.
  
Our last set of photos show a dramatic shot of
beach walkers with the Siskiyou Coast Range in the background, a friendly gull
with some unusual plumage, and finally some golden bluffs reflecting on the sand
at Hubbards Creek Beach.
  
This
concludes are Hike on Hubbards Creek Beach. Tomorrow's feature will include some
excellent photos from our last night visit to Bandon. We stopped at the Face
Rock Beach overlook and the Bandon Jetty with the Coquille River Lighthouse just
over the river. Here's a preview of what's on tap for tomorrow, a photo of the
beach south of Face Rock as seen from Face Rock Park (and this photo isn't even
one of our best pics, I'm saving them for our feature).
Friday,
07-28-2000
~ Sunny with scattered
clouds and light winds. Today we continue with our visit to Hubbard's Creek
Beach. I started this feature last week but was sidetracked by daily events.
After all this is a daily update about life here on the Siskiyou Coast and
sometimes events (new happenings and life changes) overtake your plans. For
example we've been trying to get to Cape Blanco Beach for fun and pictures for
over a week but the weather and work obligations kept overtaking our plans. We
finally made it out there last Tuesday
evening. Now I have all these great pictures (like the ones adjacent to this
paragraph) but will have to wait until another day for publication because I
promised a continuation of our Hubbards Creek story. Click
here to visit last week's feature about Hubbards Creek Beach.
We left our Hubbards Creek
feature with me working my way towards Battle Rock Beach (her
neighbor to the north). I walked along the surfline and turned back towards
Hubbards Creek Beach and shot the photo on the left. If you open the photo
you'll see at the middle left the kids playing from last
week's story). The set of photos
below were shot from this location and show a seagull coming in for landing,
trees and cliffs reflecting in the sand, and some gulls relaxing on the beach.
  
  
We'll try to continue our walk on Hubbards
Creek Beach tomorrow (depends on what happens today). I'll intermix some preview
photos from tomorrow's feature while you read the update below.
The first image shows the cliffs at the south end of Battle Rock Beach, then a
seastack located off the shoreline, and finally a view of Humbug Mountain with
Monkey Rock on the right and an undulating and reflecting shoreline in the
foreground.
