Trail Through The Dunes On Cape Cod.

If you look at the maps and trails on Cape Cod, you can find some trails that take you through the dunes and out to overlooks of the ocean.
This  was a short trail to the overlook in Wellfleet  and oh, so pretty!

Beautiful Morning For A Hike On The Nauset Marsh Trail.

Yesterday was a gorgeous morning for a hike on the Nauset Marsh Trail by the Visitor’s Center.  There was still quite a bit of snow on the trail but we had our hiking poles which were very useful on the steeper parts.

That is such a beautiful hike any time of the year, and so pretty with all of the snow.

Cape Cod National Seashore Is Always Working To Keep Their Trails Safe.

Cape Cod National Seashore is always busy keeping their trails up-to-date and safe for everyone to enjoy. (Click on blog link for other photos.)

We took a hike at the Atlantic White Cedar Swamp Trail last week and noticed that there is some work being done on the boardwalk over the swamp.

You can still enjoy most of the boardwalk and the swamp by entering on the opposite side as shown in the photograph.

It’s such a great hike for the whole family! Have you ever been on it?

 

The Dunes Have Grown On Coast Guard Beach On Cape Cod.

After the last storm, we were anxious to take a walk on Coast Guard Beach. Yesterday was a gorgeous day with sunny skies and warmish temps in the 40s. Just perfect…

We were surprised to see how high the dunes had gotten as we walked down toward Nauset Spit. In front of the dunes way in the distance,  you can see a person with a dark jacket. He looks pretty small! Those dunes have grown pretty high in the past few weeks.

I wonder what surprises Mother Nature has in store for us after today’s Nor’easter?
