Description:
NEW Trip Description: We will see a variety of environments including dunes, inter-dune ponds, beaches, estuaries, and coastal forests. In an earlier post, I contemplated perhaps crossing Tahkenitch Creek. However, there will be no stream crossing because the flow is too deep to be safe. This will reduce the walking distance by about a mile and the elevation gain by about 60 feet. There may be mosquitoes in a few places. Please bring at least a liter of water.
