Big Sur Month 11, part 2: The rock stacks

One of the surprising things from my beach and Big Sur adventures were the number of rock stacks we came upon. So many of the beaches I went to were rocky and so many of them had cairns. Even when Steve and I were the only ones in sight, the only ones on the trail, the only ones upon the beach, we’d still often come across a cairn or three (or twenty).

Sand Dollar was no exception.

I especially loved the echo of the sea stacks in the rock stacks. Sentinels on shore, sentinels at sea.
