WaddellCreek.jpg - View looking upstream from the Highway 1 bridge over
Waddell Creek. The Skyline-To-The-Sea Trail basically follows Waddell Creek
for much of the western extent of the trail. The eastern end of the trail
starts at the giant redwoods grove area of Big Basin State Park.

WaddellCreek2.jpg - One of the high-maintenance sections of Highway
1 in Santa Cruz County is along this seacliff (roadcut) between Waddell
Creek and Aņo Nuevo State Park. Prior to Highway 1, a short-lived, coastal
railroad line went through this cut. The high cliff consists of Santa Cruz
Mudstone (Miocene). CalTrans is constantly adding fill and riprap to the
ocean side of the road. |
