Black And White Photograph Of A Hiking Trail At Fort Hill On Cape Cod


bwforthilltrail

I loved this black and white photograph of one of the hiking trails at Fort Hill in Eastham on Cape Cod. If you park in the first parking lot on the left before you go up to the overlook of Nauset Marsh, that trail will take you by these trees and on a wonderful hike through the meadows, swamps, woodlands and by the marshes.

It’s a must if you get to Fort Hill. Wonderful hike… not too long and absolutely spectacular!

 

Marconi Beach In Wellfleet On Cape Cod Was Cold And Austere Last Weekend!

We’re waiting for the spring-like weather to come to Cape Cod.

I took this photograph at Marconi Beach in Wellfleet last Sunday when the temperatures were about 30 degrees with 60 mile an hour winds. It felt more like Colorado weather than Cape Cod weather.

But a pretty photograph with the snowy beach and the storm clouds, don’t you think?

Old Stone Foundation At Fort Hill On Cape Cod

There is a really cool stone foundation at Fort Hill in Eastham on Cape Cod. I’ve looked on the internet to see what it was for but haven’t come up with anything, other than the countryside was used for agriculture back in the day. Maybe this was an old house on the property?

You can see the foundation to the right as you walk back down from the top of Fort Hill overlooking Nauset Marsh. As you  hike around Fort Hill and across the meadows, you can see the many old stone walls that were used for farming way back when.

Do you know what the foundation at Fort Hill was?
