While hiking out on a remote section of WA's Pacific Coast this weekend between Cape Alava and Sand Point along the Ozette Loop in the Olympic National Park we came across an assortment, often washed ashore in clusters together, of presumable Japanese tsunami debris - including various sized plastic & styrofoam fishing floats, a large amount of the same brand of newer red-capped plastic water bottles, 5 different shoes/flip flops, lots of fresh cut plywood lumber stamped with a 'JP' mill, part of an Epson product, and more.
