The NOAA forecast of a drier than usual winter weather pattern seems like it's holding, and some of the places I walk or hike are more accessible and easier now without water filled natural depressions, feral pig trenches, and deep big wheel tire ruts.
The Shipman Beach walk starting at Beach Road in HPP has mostly dried up from our recent lack of rain, and strong winds. On of these days I plan a side trip through the generally inhospitable murky pool of low lying water leading to the coast at Paki Bay. If we don't get a heavy rain anytime soon, it should become more mud than stagnant swamp.
What about other day hikes?
Does anyone have a favorite place they visit in dry weather that's easier to reach, or that may be inaccessible at any other time when we are in a normal wetter weather pattern?
