As of 1/1/2018, car park has been cleared and graded with crushed rock.

Sand deposited at mouth has produced high water levels in estuary, with the small berm just washed over at high tide. At other times, the mouth is closed. 

Starting with the next sampling, photographs BmP3-1 and BmP3-2 will not be uploaded.  Panoramic photo BmP3-3 includes all information contained in BmP3-1 and BmP3-2, and moreover, is easier to interpret.
