Dub,
good observation, that is not an epic wave. I'm surprised you didn't mention that one can also see snow and waterfalls all in the same day in Oregon, why would anyone travel really? I could have saved so much money...

Gaz, I'm guessing you are cool to return to all those rights. I doubt they will conscript you at this point.

Got back from baja sur about a week ago. I had to brush snow of my rig at the airport still in boardshorts and flip flops. A couple weak photos on one of the small days at a fairly well-known break taken right from our campsite con Pacifco muy fria en mi mano. Must have been a hundred humback whales (humping each other?) in close proximity to the lineup. Anywhere from 6 to 26 dudes out at any one time but well spaced between 3 peaks.

I will be there in 11 days, can't wait. Let me guess? Is that a certain spot just north of Todos?

Leash - I am wishing you good waves when you're down south. Looking forward to the annual onslaught of your vacation pix.

Got one pict uploaded so far from my two week cabo trip:

Surf was pretty big the first two days along the pacific side and a little messy. Swell dropped and was about the size in the pict for the next week or so.

Well, a south swell blew in around tuesday of the second week and the corridor and east cape were going off for the rest of the week. Everything from Old Man's to Shipwreck was fire'n. Quite lucky for that area to be breaking this time of year. First time I had surfed Old Man's. Head high mushy rights peeling thru with almost no closeouts. Amazing how fun a mellow peeling wave can be where you can really focus on your surfing and not what the wave might do. I had gotten so used to fast and punchy beachbreaks that I had almost forgot what a rock/reef break was like.

Broke my 5'10" fish as well (board in the picture above), wasn't too happy about that. Loved that board for smaller surf. Had to ride my 6'2" the rest of the week, which was a little more work, but still fun. Water was colder than last year, started to warm up with the south swell.

I like this one the best. Guess I found getting snaked after the wave was done quite hilarious.
