Paddle: Chrissy Field to Seal Rock


Lee Apple, Ken Armstrong, and Mike Ransom launch from Chrissy Field at 9:00 and paddle out the Gate. We traced our way past Baker and China Beaches then along Land's End. We turned back just short of the Cliff House Restaurant. Both on the way out and back we saw many dolphins playing near China Beach. It was a beautiful fall day.

Paddle: Pillar Point

Lee Apple and I launched from Pillar Point for a day of paddling and a little rescue and roll practice. We paddled out to Buoy #1 and checked the break on the reef. It was high tide and breaking around Mushroom and the other rocks so we decided to skip surfing. The swell was a little larger than we had expected. So we paddled back in to Bouy #3 then on to buoy #1S. The wind was down and it was a nice but overcast day. We saw lots of gulls, a few pelicans, sea lions hanging out on the buoys and some seals. My old camera died on the Rogue River so I was using a new Olympus 725SW, it’s waterproof and shock resistant. Back in the harbor we practice rolls, paddle float and T-rescues. Great day!
