| Notes | This article, which comprises a whole issue of the Ore Bin, deals with the 1972-1973 severe erosion of the Salishan development on the Siletz Spit. “The purposes of this report are to document the erosion to Siletz Spit and to explain its causes.” (p.119) The report is accompanied by numerous maps and (rather amazing) black-and-white photographs documenting the erosion and the forces driving it. |
