There's always something to discover at Torrey Pines State Reserve, even late in the summer of an already dry year: a feather caught in a spider web, sand sedimentation very like what the waves still lay out on the beach 50 feet below, a silver argiope web, and a dramatic natural sandstone arch I hadn't noticed - though other people obviously have!

Update, May 25, 2013: Saw it just in time; the arch has since collapsed.
