Next surge of King Tide project about to rise
SEAL ROCK — Those who can get
to the coast with a camera Monday and
Tuesday can play a role in this year’s
King Tide project. The Oregon branch
of this international volunteer effort to
document the reach of the year’s high-
est tides is sponsored by the CoastWatch
program of the Oregon Shores Conser-
vation Coalition and the state’s Coastal
Management Program, along with the
Surfrider Foundation and local watershed
councils.
Photographers of every level of ability
are needed to document the next set of
high tides Jan. 19-21 and again Feb. 17-
19. Find links to tide tables and sugges-
tions for posting photographs, at www.
oregonkingtides.net or http://bit.ly/1x-
6fu3u.
Volunteers are asked to take photos
at the highest point of the tide on those
days. Those that show the location of the
tide in relation to the built environment
(roads, seawalls, buildings) are especial-
ly useful in demonstrating impending
threats. The ideal photo would be taken
from a location where the photographer
can return later at an ordinary high tide to
take a comparison shot.
Participating photographers are asked
to post their photographs on the project’s
-
gonkingtides. Those who don’t wish to
orkingtide@gmail.com
At the conclusion of the project, a cel-
ebration is being held beginning at 5:30
p.m. Feb. 20 at the South Beach loca-
tion of the Rogue Brewery in Newport.
The best of the King Tide photos will be
shown, photographers will be on hand
to comment, and there will be a special
speaker. The event is free and open to all,
with some refreshments provided, and
beer and meals available from the Rogue.
For information about the technical
aspects of the project, contact Andy La-
nier, coastal resources specialist with the
