Misty drizzly day but not much wind and never really raining. Not much in the way of views from Middle Tip Toe but the trail is a delight. The Shore Trail also brand new and follows a combination of herd paths and fresh trails through a delightful mossy forest. Gorgeous with a great footbed. You cross an inlet that is underwater at high tide so check your times for this as the tides move fast here. Great tidal pools and rocky areas on the west side of the island there. Plenty of different shells and things around . Rocks were slippery today from the fog but still a great day to be out . Thanks Valerie for a walk in the fog |
