This Chronolog station is used primarily to monitor erosion of the coastal bluff on the south side of Kalaloch Creek. Rapid rates of erosion of this bluff threaten cabins at Kalaloch Lodge, and the photos that you submit will help to assess rates and patterns of erosion, and assist in decision-making about the types and timing of management actions appropriate for this particular site.
