Trip Report

We had beautiful weather for our 6.3 mile hike counter clockwise, through forest to the beach where we headed south on the beach and then went up through the dunes to beautiful Three Mile Lake where we stopped and had lunch, enjoying the view. Then, we completed the loop through lush forest.
