A makeshift shelter, possibly made from driftwood and cloth, is seen in the foreground, likely set up by a traveler or camper. The background shows a rocky outcrop and a long expanse of sandy beach stretching toward the horizon.Ocean Lake, which is now known as Lincoln City, Oregon, was a popular destination for travelers exploring the Pacific Northwest. The city is known today for its scenic views and coastal attractions. The makeshift shelter indicates that camping near the beach was a common activity for adventurers in the 1930s.There are no identifiable people or specific signage in the image, only the natural elements and the shelter created from driftwood and fabric.
