Ballston Beach Breach
They just showed footage on News 7 of Ballston Beach......looks like a full on breach through to the Pamet River??? Bad!! If that cut gets bad enough, and it looks like it is, they could have permanent salt water flowing through there I would imagine??? Very bad! Angie and I got married right where the breach cut through.

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Some of the greatest night on the back were right there.
Use to be a hole right in front of the house on the top of the dune.
Had a 48# one night along with 8 in the high 30s to mid-40s right there. Maybe 1994 or 95

No boat, back in the suds.

Any thoughts from anyone on if that will heal itself or it can be repaired??? That cut looks below sea level at this point??

Gonna be tough to shore that up. If they can save the parking lot (and access) you'll have a good place to fish on the drop.

That's incredible. I have always felt a good storm like Sandy was to Jersey would take out a lot of the Lower cape given the right circumstances very fragile area. Too bad

They moved that house back 80 feet about 5 years ago....at a cost of $1,000,000 from what I understand!!

Going down there later today, will post some pic's at different points in the tide to see how deep it is.
I'm thinking a new breach way (like the ones in Rhode Island), then a marina in the back pond with 80 slips, reserved for fisherman - that will resolve Pamet's parking issues when the tuna are running!

Two more
When the waves receded, I did not see a "ditch", so the water hasn't really dug deep into the bottom sand yet, which would be like a river. It is flowing up and through. pamet3.jpg

Not enough backflow from the river it's self.This is just pushing more sand into the marsh.The predominant current flows along the beach will replace the sand and it will heal back up.
Rich...what does the backside look like? Have you taken any walks from High Head towards Peaked Hills Bar? I do miss those winter walks from the Head past the shacks and the trail walk back.There should be some great stuff washed up about a mile and a half from the Head.Minus lows revealed some great bones over the years.SHHHHH!!!!! don't tell Mr.Price

Back in 01, right after 911 Al Ghor stayed in that house. Secret Service everywhere. My partner and I got stopped by the Service walking the front beach. 2 hours of interrogation trying to figure out what we were doing. WTF, waders, surf rods and eels. What do you think we are doing.????  |

I remember that Paul.There was a great bowl in front of that spot that fished really well. I fished there all night with Hab,Squirrel and Teaser Jack til our arms were sore.What a super memory of an awesome crew.They would chip in and get a room in Truro for the month of September and Chef would have food trucked in from the Ptown Inn as well as heineken!!!Saw a lot of sunrises down there.

Actually Gore stayed in the house you cannot see from the parking lot[those two on the top of the hill].The house is in the hollow below to the n/w.With the erosion over the years that house can now be seen from the beach as you walk to the n/w.The original house was a small cottage.Through some "negotiations" with the Seashore and another house the owners possessed in the woods on N.Pamet rd they were "allowed" to demolish the cottage and build the present house that Bore stayed in. |

Agree.
It was an overwash event, not a breach with tidal flow a la Wasque or Trustom in RI.
It will close via longshore transport... |
