ahh yes the "locals" RED ALERT! - Sorry dude but you may just be a sucker. Those locals probably wouldnt have done anthing if you had stood your ground. And if they had touched you or your car, all you would have to do was write down their license plate numbers and call the police.

looked very good yesterday - I have to say that the point was working yesterday. No one out, it was a Tuesday, and the point was working what it was given. I decided to stop at the parking lot lookout right over the point and lo and behold the point looked pretty good. It was low tide so you could’ve walked right up to the line up and jumped in. I don’t think you can get to the point on high tide by walking, just a long paddle. It wasn't J-bay or anything but one could have rode all the way back to the sandy part of the beach no problem... just had to find some way around that dame rock in the middle of things. Wish I had the time and balls to go out on my own, but it was still beautiful to see.
