Today's photos are from Brimmer Point trail,
which starts just west of the parking lot on the point, winds around and down
to the CCC walk bridge below Powell Mountain, and then returns to the top.

Wonderfully laid out Civilian Conservation Corps built trail with some great
views. This year's wet spring left the trail a bit overgrown in spots, but it
is hikeable (not sure that is a real word, but I am on a roll and too lazy to
look it up), for this pair of septuagenarians. The
trail measures about a mile and a half and took us a bit over an hour with
multiple stops for rest, photos, a quick drink (water) or to simply scan the
surroundings and watch nature in action.

After some health setbacks
and quite a bit of procrastination, we are back hiking in the park. I must
admit my wife has been better about getting in her steps than I have. After
more than a year of doing not much writing, not much hiking, and not taking
many photos I'm giving it another try. I will post as we explore the park.

Want
to find out more about Guernsey State Park? Here is the link to my book on Amazon, available as an eBook or in softcover. I am partial to the softcover as
it cannot move photos around like the eBook. The book is also available, signed, from many
local, and around the state, booksellers.

Great photos.
ReplyDeleteSomehow I missed this blog of yours. Saw your tweet and found it here. I'm very glad I did.
Thanks, this used to be a pretty active blog but I have neglected it lately - we spend a lot of time in the park - always enjoyable.
