Today's Location: [Santa Barbara]

Our graticule contains a lot of water, and a lot of very remote area in the Los Padres National Forest. But eventually, we should get lucky, and land on the beach, so let's keep looking!

Note: Sunday's (2008-06-15) location is very good for SB residents, especially compared to Saturday's.

Identifiable Users Actively Monitoring the Page

  • User:Pconrad created the Santa Maria, California Graticule, and watches that one too, hoping for a nice accessible spot on the beach. I'm tied up Sunday 2008-06-15 (not literally)--too bad because it looks like an interesting nearby location to go explore. Looks likes it's deep in private property, but perhaps one could get "sort of close" depending on whether the road that heads out that way is marked "private" or not.
  • User:f4hy has been monitoring irregularly. "If we get a coordinate closer to the coast I'll be there."
  • User:contraption checks once in a while and might just show up some time, probably on a weekend.

Other comments that have been posted

- I've got myself and another watching it. If it's close enough, we might be able to make the trip. (2008-06-09 was on Santa Cruz Island, anyone attempt?)

- My husband and I live in the area as well. Today's (6-11-08) isn't too bad but jobs prevent wandering around outside all day. Guess we will have to see what Saturday brings! --erife
