A foray

Summary
Fun. Lots of work, but fun.
Waves
Good size, poor to good shape, lots and lots of very fast, very fun shoulders. Shoulder to overhead in size, not hollow but certainly giant workable walls. Not fun to paddle out in...
Crowds
Only three out at first, but over the next hour about fifty more stopped in. Not crowded but certainly quite a few out.
Weather
Sunny, clear, beautiful. Early offshore winds, turned light onshore around 8:30.
Forecast
Winds look spectacular for the next week. Windswell for the next week...short period. Should be surfable. Monday/Tuesday bigger, then it tapers off. I am optimistic...tides improve, surf should be pretty fun this next week.
Eventful Stuff
Dillon Beach looked pretty dead so I decided to head up North. Good choice.
Wave of the Day
Sweet right. Seven foot drop, deep dig at the bottom, shoot up the face, cutback, back down the face, starts to section so I shoot back up and slap the section, race through the rest of the section, then it starts to closeout so I shoot off it.

Summary:
Salmon Creek, Sonoma County
5'10" Southpoint
6:45-9:00
5-6ft, 8ft+sets
3/5
