Cape Cod 3/27/04 and 3/28/04

South of the Newcombe Hollow parking lot. Notice how waves deflected by the clay scour the dunes to the side - much like the effect found at the end of revetments.

Biscuit has to time the waves just right.

This is found on the other side of the outcropping

From another view. Pictures from earlier in the month were much different.

Clay about to dislodge

Arlene checks out the clay

Notice the clay crumbling

This is almost three hours before high tide. It is impassable at high.

Slabs of clay

The top of the cliff can let go at any time

The clay breaks off and disolves so it doesn't replenish the beach.

More wave action

Approaching the remains of the clay outcropping north of the parking lot

Fishing nets washed up on the beach. See the large chain attached

Not too many days left

Crumbling with each high tide

Salt burn on the pines
