I love the imaginative way of naming those beaches.

Are those Elk hoof prints?

Ah, a great place. I need to get back there considering it’s basically in my back yard

No, just boots. It's a popular trail.

Better than naming it after some random British explorer

Are these open yet? I know that many locations were shuttered due to covid...last year I rode out and it was still closed, but that was like 6 months ago.

Shows "closed to the public" but sometimes these sites take a while to update.

The beach I grew up going to in SoCal was literally called "ocean beach" so I honestly think this is a step up naming-wise

I went two weeks ago and it was fine. Never blocked and people were moving along quickly. Small construction after lake crescent which delayed about five minutes.

Third beach trailhead is open.

Drive was mellow! Some heavy fog patches, but nothing bad for heading in around 9pm. Very surprised to have that amount of sun out there in January.

Awesome, thanks! Was just worried about snow/ice but not sure how the peninsula is over the winter so wasn’t sure if that was a valid concern

Cool, thanks! Was mainly worried about snow/ice but wasn’t sure how much the peninsula typically gets over the winter

Totally! In general the snow doesn’t cause too many issues on the coast. Stay low elevation and you should be fine in the winter in the PNW.

Early 70's, 3rd week in October and beautiful weather. My buddy and I hiked in for a couple of days, built a small log structure and had a blast.
