Description:

Join me July 21 2024 on my Annual Obsidian barefoot hike. This year we will start at Holman Vista day use area.
We will first cross 20-25” deep Sutton Creek and then hike on the beach north, cross 10” deep Berry Creek and continue to the Darko’s Hidden Cove. After the snack break we will hike back pretty much same way. Hi tide (4.4 ft.) at 7:24AM, Low tide (1.6 ft.) at 12:59PM.
✯ We are designed to walk barefoot but evolved to shoe wearing creatures. Barefoot walking is candid way to feel the earth under your feet. There are many health benefits and some risks associated with going barefoot. Please use common sense. Carry sandals or (and) thick socks and use in case you are unable to handle sand under your feet.
