Very cool sea whips deeper than 65ft. Pretty nice vis and water temp below 15ft was surprisingly comfortable. Some unique flatfish (a sand sole), grunt sculpin, many smallish sunflower sea stars. Not many fish, definitely a muck dive. The eelgrass shallows were pretty quiet for winter, only a few common nudibranchs and some fish eggs in the Japanese wireweed.
