ular sport for youngsters. A
skimming board is just a piece
of plywood or fiberglass . . .
which, when applied to the
shallow water along the surf-
line, provides thrills and spills
for the younger set.
BRADLEY LAKE Is located
about four miles south of Bandon
just off Highway 101 and Is one
of the lakes planted annually
by the Oregon Game Commis­
sion with s e v e r a l thousand
trout. A boat ramp provides
access to the lake. A sand dune
on the west side of the lake
borders on the ocean.

provides a paved road to the
.beach, plus a large parking
area. The beach at this point is
wide and flat, suitable for surf
wading and “ skimming.”
