Saw dozens of these at North Cove.

Found this lil guy under a giant ass rock. Black. Spiny. Not so slimy. Moves around a lot though. Found a lot of these closer to the water.
Many of these brittle stars were found in the lower intertidal area underneath rocks. They moved fairly quickly.
A series of bones located along the shoreline near where the Columbia river empties into the Pacific Ocean. Possible shoulder girdle.
