Just about everyone who hikes at Fort Hill passes this rock on the trail. In the summer, a Rose of Sharon flower grows out from the deep crevice. In the winter, it’s just a large glacial rock which makes a nice backdrop if you’re looking across Nauset Marsh toward Coast Guard Station.
I always love hiking Little Cliff Pond at Nickerson. It is so pretty and so diverse. You get views of 3 ponds and so much more. There are even many off-trails for you to explore. Have you ever hiked the Little Cliff Pond Trail?
There is a nice little wheelchair-accessible overlook by the trail at Kent’s Point which was constructed by the Boy Scouts years ago. You can see all the way out to Little Pleasant Bay.
So pretty, don’t you think?
It was a spectacular day for a walk to Coast Guard Beach from Doane Rock. The weather was beautiful with a slight breeze on the beach. And then you turned around to head back. Wow! Look at those clouds over the boardwalk. It looks someone threw some cotton candy into the sky!
