Re: Pinnacle Rock, Sekiu, Salt Creek, Lake Crescent...oh my!

If they don't have signage citing the closure on East Beach (I didn't see any this year or last year), are they allowed to do anything about other than wag their finger at you? Without a sign, people have no way of knowing other than through word of mouth

Re: WWW 7/31/13

It is up in the air on whether or not I will actually be there. My brother is tentatively celebrating his birthday that night. If he decided to go forward with the current plans, then family comes first, and I will be out!

It was a possibility all along, although I thought I distinctly remembered NOT walking out of the bathroom with a wetsuit in my hands. So I figured I would be proactive.
