Mexico and a Beach

Monterey Bay at low tide releases hundreds of years of decay.  Fish eating other fish and pieces eaten by crabs and all of it mixing with oxygen to surrender their scent to the ocean breeze.

Driving north of Santa Cruz through pumpkin country on the coast road.  Another forgotten coastline though so close to The City as to be within lunch break distance.  As Portland labors under a winter storm flowers bloom here and young Mexican couples take selfies in the flowing yellow sea.  I was reminded of another coast road a thousand miles away, much further south and lost to the past, of winding turns and sparkling blue-green shallow bays.  Holly and Dana had been alternating between singing and snacking in the back seat of our 4WD while Edmund and I held down the beers and conversation up front.  As we rounded a bluff, a particularly fetching half moon of sand opened below us — a pickup truck with a huge camper shell the only inhabitant under a copse of palms at the south end and an empty campsite at the north end beckoning.  I hadn’t seen any kind of pullout or road but slowed a bit to scan the hillside.  “There” said Edmund, tracing a zigging line down the south end of the cliff.  On either side of the beach steep cliffs pushed into the water and fell at least 150’ into blue.  I kept an eye out for anything else but as we got to the southern curve there was a dirt pullout and a rough road leading off the edge of the cliff.  I kept some speed as I pulled off — these tight corners often produced a speeding bus or truck — and so hit the first drop at about 25mph, which was WAAAAY too fast.  The drop combined with a fast lefthand turn to hug the cliff face and we all lost contact with gravity for a moment before the SUV slammed back down.  I’m pretty sure I hit the ceiling twice and the noise of the cooking and camping cases loosely netted to the roof rack was deafening.  The girls began screaming.  I would have screamed, too, had I not been completely absorbed in the task at hand.  The “road” spun itself against the cliff at a remarkable angle and several immediate washouts had me trying to launch a tire off the last outcrop and up onto the even-steeper angle of the cliff to get us around them.  Braking was impossible — the loose dirt would slide us forward with no control.  So I gassed it and felt the drivers-side lift impossibly high.  I hoped the cargo net would hold — I hadn’t packed it for this and could imagine all our equipment strewn down the hillside for hundreds of yards.

Below the washouts, the road evened out slightly, seeming much more stable.  I managed to grind the brakes to a complete halt.  Something felt like a broken tooth at the end of the pedal.  My head hurt from contact with the ceiling.  The girls were still screaming.  I took a deep breath and turned in the seat.  “That is NOT helping.  If anybody wants to try the rest of this, I’ll get out right now.  No?  Then shut up.  If YOU want to get out, I’m fine with that, too.  But I think I see the way down from here.”  Edmund brushed beer off himself and took a long drink.  His slightly-tan English skin had gone back to a normal deathly white.  The girls gulped but quieted.  I took another deep breath.  Letting off the brake, I started picking my way down the remaining 100’ or so of vertical.  There were at least two weird sounds coming out of the truck but nothing was exploding and I felt like the first thing to do was get down.  At the pickup truck, two campers had emerged and were clutching each others arms and pointing in amazement.  There were a few sliding skidding stops but the rest of the path was less dramatic than the first 50’ and in 15 minutes we were parked under the palms at the north end of the beach.  The other campers walked up to join us.  They brought me a cold beer.  “Sorry we don’t have enough for everyone but we figured the driver could use it.”  Looking back at the cliff and tracing our path it looked totally improbable from below.  I wasn’t sure I could make it back UP and the remains of a VW Bug covered with cactus seemed to augur poorly.

“How, exactly, did you get a top-heavy pickup in here?” was the question on my mind.  They grinned.  Low tide.  Drive around the bluff on hard-packed sand and take an easy beach road out.

We stayed nearly a week.  Camping chairs thrown nipple deep in the warm shallows and tiny fish nibbling between our toes while we drank cold Corona and cooked over a beach fire.  At night the water was no less warm but gained luminescence and we marveled at the trails we left to mark our passages.
