Point Whitehorn


This was two weeks ago - a gray, drizzly day for field visits and meetings north of Bellingham. But it left some slack for a lunchtime walk to the beach at Point Whitehorn, which is now a marine reserve (a park, basically).  The eroding glacial drift that forms the bluffs along here has left a residue of cobble and large boulders on the beach -- a beach I had almost to myself.  Those are Lummi and Orcas Islands to the south over the incredibly calm waters.
