SHI SHI BEACH: TREK to POINT of ARCHES


It was a blustery day on the North Pacific Coast as we began the 2.3 mile trek down to Point of Arches. We were camped on the far north end of the long crescent-shaped beach. The glistening sand was so smooth, we seemed to be hiking on soft pavement. 

 At Point of Arches, we spent the rest of the day exploring tide-pools  Point of Arches is a wonderland of colorful tide-pools. Standing is Ross Hamilton, a renowned Northwest nature photographer.  My sister, Brenda Williamson, photographs a sea star in the tide pool. It was hard to say farewell to Shi Shi as we hiked back to civilization the next morning. 

Check back soon for more words and pictures of Shi Shi Beach.
