Dunetype 1
Description Represents the current duneridge. The 10 meter modern foredune labeled 1 occurs along the alignment of a double row sand fence (Figure 2) that was planted with European beachgrass in the mid 1930’s (Reckendorf, et al 1985) This dune extends for 21 km. (13 miles) from Seaside to the Columbia River. The foredune grew rapidly as the European beachgrass (Figure 3) could withstand up to three feet of winter burial. Height is roughly 10 meter (33 ft.).
