I'll let Beth Kattleman tell the story as she explored the southern entrance to the Point Arena-Stornetta Lands.

“I snapped this photo while walking along a bluff trail. It was the first time I had accessed this trail. Absolutely gorgeous. To the south is the Point Arena Pier, and northward leads to the Lighthouse.

“As I was walking I was watching a surfer try to catch some waves. He was unsuccessful and I moved along. THIS view stopped me dead in my tracks!  My husband and I often comment that everywhere you turn, prepared to be dazzled. Even views from the trails we frequently visit seem different from the day before, whether it’s the lighting, the changing sky, the wildness of the waves, the progression of seasons – it never gets old. I love it so much here.”

The southern entrance to the Lands is found behind Point Arena City Hall.

Thanks to Beth for allowing me to share her photo with you here.
