Gravel Beach: Sequalitchew Creek
http://gravelbeach.blogspot.com/2010/10/sequalitchew-creek.html
Puget Sound Beaches . not really just gravel, but sand, broken shell, and occasionally a boulder the size of a large truck. Thursday, October 07, 2010. A narrow gauge rail line used to serve the munitions plant, running down the ravine, passing under the mainline, and out to a pier (long unused, but only recently removed). You can walk down the old grade to the marsh, through the short tunnel, and then emerge suddenly, and spectacularly, at the beach and the Sound. Posted by Gravel Beach. The UPRR origin...

Gravel Beach: Merrill and Ring Creek

Puget Sound Beaches . not really just gravel, but sand, broken shell, and occasionally a boulder the size of a large truck. Friday, October 02, 2009. Merrill and Ring Creek. Named after one of the region’s timber giants, this is one of many small streams that drain to the “Great Northern” shoreline between Seattle and Everett. It is also one of the very few of them to have a delta with dry land and forest on the seaward side of the railroad tracks. Picnic Point is another. Posted by Gravel Beach.

Gravel Beach: Carkeek Park
http://gravelbeach.blogspot.com/2009/02/carkeek-park.html
Puget Sound Beaches . not really just gravel, but sand, broken shell, and occasionally a boulder the size of a large truck. Monday, February 16, 2009. Piper's Creek is one of Seattle's better know urban streams, draining three square miles of the city's northwest neighborhoods. It has several hundred spawning salmon (fishus iconicus) and provides foraging for tens of thousands of school kids every year. I wonder what this place looked like before the railroad was built?

Gravel Beach: Eglon
http://gravelbeach.blogspot.com/2007/01/eglon.html
Puget Sound Beaches . not really just gravel, but sand, broken shell, and occasionally a boulder the size of a large truck. Wednesday, January 10, 2007. The beach here is partly a small delta and partly just a slow spot in the beach. There is a little bit of a bay in the shoreline here, so the flux of northbound sediment may decrease, causing the beach to build up.sort of like traffic approaching the ship canal bridge on southbound I-5.

Gravel Beach: Sand Harbor
http://gravelbeach.blogspot.com/2015/07/sand-harbor.html
Puget Sound Beaches . not really just gravel, but sand, broken shell, and occasionally a boulder the size of a large truck. Thursday, July 09, 2015. I love the juxtaposition of the rounded boulders with the deep blue water. The beaches on the lake seem to range from white to pink - which I suppose reflects the variation in the granitic rocks from which they were eroded. Posted by Gravel Beach. Thursday, July 09, 2015.

Gravel Beach: Medano Creek
http://gravelbeach.blogspot.com/2015/07/medano-creek.html
Puget Sound Beaches . not really just gravel, but sand, broken shell, and occasionally a boulder the size of a large truck. Saturday, July 11, 2015. Shorelines and geomorphology, but instead of coastal processes, the story here is the interaction of fluvial and aeolian processes. The broad San Luis Valley gathers sediment eroded off the surrounding mountain ranges, particularly the San Juan range to the west. Like so many western valleys, this one was once (probably more than once? The braided nature of ...

Gravel Beach: Mission Creek
http://gravelbeach.blogspot.com/2015/08/mission-creek.html
Puget Sound Beaches . not really just gravel, but sand, broken shell, and occasionally a boulder the size of a large truck. Sunday, August 02, 2015. Mission Creek is another small stream mouth with a long history. The old road cut across the mouth of the estuary on a small causeway but in the last couple of years, local groups have worked together to remove the armor and the fill and the creek now flows freely.
