Hi All,

Sadly it was only a day trip out to the camp and then it was back to the office I go. Luckly enough my dad (CWR) and my brother had great weather out on the beach. Also luckly enough we timed the route to get on using the front beach, as during dead high tide we may not have been so lucky depending on waves and timing of making it down the front beach. It is really impressive how much can change in just a few months (from the Sept trip I took with my work buddies). I mean turning off the front beach at check pt 1 proved to be steeper then I thought (though the Dodge seemed to just power right up and over). I would have loved to see some of the summer time goers try and get up and over at check point 1. Talk about good people watching that would be.

The inner trail from that point on looked ok, some water in the road, but nothing that was would have caused any concern. Great day on the beach and at the camp. I sometimes forget just how lucky and relaxing it is to go out to the beach mid week and just take in the sun and air.

Like my dad posted earlier, we got the camp ready for the winter months ahead, however my brother and I were able to still sneak off to the front beach for a while to watch the waves crash in.

I am hoping to maybe get down there again next week as my roomates friend from work is playing a gig at the Land Ho next Thursday. I am glad to hear that the Inner road is open all the way, as I did notice the sand and the turn to go to the front beach from the washover was really soft and loose at that point, so this should make the trip a little easier.

Hope all is well with everyone and hopefully some day our paths cross out on the beach (remember if we literally cross, coming off as the right of way =P )
