Went to BH yesterday and then again today for a surf Man, the swell really jumped last night and the amount of sand shifted between the 2 days is incredible! Any of you locals remember it looking this way before? In my 3yrs here Ive seen the sand retreat season to season Just interested how/what it used to look like - guess its a cyclic thing...but man, so impressive the changes it goes thru
Yes, its looking pretty washed out, i took a photo today of it, will add to this post soon, and perhaps do a retro post of sand build up and erosion at blackhead, I've been documenting it for years, but never posted about it.

Yeah do it! I walk the dog there heaps and just get blown away by how much it changes day to day week to week month to month etc etc some awesome forces involved Saw the big digger getting dropped off at the tennis courts by Kilda for some erosion repairs by the looks of things
Hi a group of us from the University of Otago are making a short film on 'the effects of the blackhead mine on the environment and local people'. Would any of you be interested in being interviewed either audio or auido and video (whatever you are comfortable with. Your viewpoints would be greatly appreciated, and will help to raise awareness on the issue. please reply here or contact Julia at julz.gonebeach@gmail.com or Mark at mtclemo@gmail.com cheers
