Beach cusps

 

A delight of a lakeshore walk along a sandy beach is the occasional appearance of beach cusps: a natural rhythmic pattern of small cusps and bays. On the main website, I offer somewhat more spectacular views along with an explanation. Also, there is a Wikipedia article that discusses unresolved aspects of the explanation. 

Here the periodicity of the beach cusps has been accentuated by a dusting of snow.
