Beginning this week and annually from Sept. 16 to March 14, riders will be directed to access the beach via the newly constructed Breach North OHV Trail, 600 feet north of the traditional Breach access point. This winter detour provides alternate access to Siltcoos Beach and does not affect use of the beach itself. Western snowy plover are small, threatened shorebirds that utilize open sand for nesting, feeding, and overwin- tering. “We’re committed to providing great recreation opportunities on the dunes and beach throughout the year, while also protecting these sensitive birds,” said Shane Gill, recreation lead for the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area. “We appreciate riders’ willing- ness to use the new beach access point so that these plovers have a better chance of surviving the winter undis- turbed.” After a multi-year analysis and review, including input from thousands of members of the public, in 2015 the See PLOVER 3B 4-0 4-0 3-1 2-2 1-2 1-3 MWL G IRLS FWL G IRLS Feb. 2 7:15am / 6.2 8:45pm/ 4.5 T.
