Description: Title supplied by cataloger.
Onlookers watch as four people, one woman and three men, wearing bathing suits display driftwood and empty glass bottles picked up from debris that thickly covers the beach in front of The Pike and the Long Beach bathhouse. The woman stands beside a sign from the Angeles National Forest showing directions and distance to Bear Canyon, 1 m; Devils Canyon, 10 m; West Fork Ranger Sta., 16 m; Rincon Ranger Station and Camp Rincon, 1 m. It appears the debris was deposited from runoff from a recent storm.
