aka Cucumaria miniata. They are under the edge of a rock.
They are moist, but not under water, so their feeding tentacles are withdrawn.
See previous photo to see one with Oral Tentacles extended.
Works well enlarged where a colony of something can be seen on the strand of kelp.
With Oral Tentacles extended in tide pool at Rosario in Deception Pass State Park. Scientific name: Cucumaria miniata.
It has worked itself under the edge of a rock beside a sea anemone.
OK to enlarge
Next photo shows the sea cucumbers with tentacles pulled in.

This might be the red (orange) sea cucumber, Cucumaria miniata . While this isn't the greatest photo, you can still pick out some of the identifying features. Like their fellow echinoderms, the sea stars, sea cucumbers (like this one) also have tube feet. Can you find them?
