New wave-cut bench along the east shore of Washoe Lake, a result of high water levels and high winds this last season. The surf was cutting into stabilized sand dunes and vegetation cover that have been there for decades, so this hasn't happened in a while! The inset shows the wave incision a little farther along the shore. Looking south. Washoe Lake State Park, Nevada.

A result of high winds and water levels this last season! Note the truncated grass cover and flooded (and now partly drowned) willows in the middle distance. Washoe Lake State Park, Nevada.

On Dungeness Spit, Washington state, on the seaward side looking WNW out the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The edge of the Washington mainland is barely visible at far left, and some of Vancouver Island is visible to the right. Straight out this way, tho, the next landfall is Kamchatka! ;)
