Garbage Collected on Strait of Juan de Fuca 10/29/10

This batch is from a popular sea kayak paddle we did along the Strait of Juan de Fuca from Freshwater Bay to Salt Creek Rec Area. Vertical cliffs, sea caves, aches, and abundent sea life are part of the trip. Wind and swell can make it an advanced skills paddle, but fun if you know what you're doing. In a few pocket beaches I found large chunks of foam and the normal plastic bottles and other items that had floated in. The kelp beds were saturated in tiny pieces of foam, plastic, and nylon rope, pretty sad, as removing those items would be impossible. I carried these larger pieces back in my kayak, a great way to haul trash out. There were some very large plastic and foam chunks I couldn't fit in and an industrial looking 6 foot wide tire on the first pocket beach north of Observatory Point. Anyone have a helicopter?
