Itinerary description

An easy beach walk with only one tricky bit at Hanging Cape. You will have to jump or wade the creeks; water level varies with rainfall. This route is best done at low tide but the north shore tidal range is usually only 2 or 3 ft so it can probably be easily accomplished any time except very high tides.

Waypoints

PictographWaypoint Altitude 10 ft

Hanging Cape

A spooky bit but it is short and there are some slippy rocks. There are some overhanging rocks that you should try to avoid being under.

Easy Cape

No real difficulties here, just some ledges to clamber over.

Nuthin'-To-It Cape

No even worth mentioning.

County Line Road beach access

An easy place to get onto the beach.

PictographWaypoint Altitude 3 ft

Thunder Cove beach access

A very popular beach access but getting down the slope can be tricky. Be careful. I am told the cape to the west can be negotiated at low tide but there are no public access points west of Thunder Cove beach.
