Hike Coordinator: John Malone
Narration by Rheo Wheeler
We had a 6-ish mile meander through the dunes beginning from the Dellenback trailhead. We were heading for the beach but were turned back by a submerged trail. Go figure, no one wanted to go for a thigh-high wade to get to the beach. Oh well, high tide would have not provided much sand for a stroll.
We retreated to the dunes area and then uphill to overlook one of the lakes for lunch. After lunch, we followed a trail near the lakes and found a waterfall gushing from the recent rains. Going down to the lake meant climbing back out to continue our circle back to our starting point. I won’t mention the 3 huge dunes between us and the trailhead… but… Up and down, and up and down to get our miles in.
We had just a tiny bit of sprinkles with an interesting sky, making for a great outdoor experience.
