Yesterday we finally made it to the beach!
First we checked out Newcomb Hollow, but the erosion did not seem too bad although I had overhead people in town discussing it. Then we stopped at Cahoon, where the dune was definitely steeper, above. On we went to LeCount Hollow. There the beach had descended, so that it was about 10 feet below its previous level. We walked down to Marconi and at last saw evidence of real beach erosion from last week’s storm. (Note to regular blog readers: there will be no post tomorrow as I will be away from my computer.)

Hi Alexandra. I read your blog all the time. I love Wellfleet and have been going up there every summer since I was born!
I was just wondering if the picture of Newcomb Hollow was taken at high or low tide? My sister was just up there this past weekend and told me there was almost no beach left at Newcomb Hollow! Hope this is not true I'm headed up there for the 4th tomorrow! Cannot wait! :)
HI, Eileen. This photo was taken at 4 pm, low tide was at noon. I imagine she was talking about high tide.
