The trail itself was pretty flat and simple, but that's a good thing. The entire park was very well maintained and clean, and would be great for anyone looking for an easy hike or even a decent bike ride. My only complaint would be the lack of a big payoff. I don't really need a destination on every hike, but it's always nice when there's something to look forward to on the trail. Unfortunately the only landmark was this scenic overlook.
Somewhere behind these trees is an excellent view of Sandy Hook. Pretty disappointing. So much so that we actually had to check a map to make sure we weren't fooling ourselves.
Nope. Scenic Overlook Fail.
Alright, well atleast we had the beach ahead of us. I mean, Sandy Hook was only across the street.
The walk to the ocean was hot and long. Evan and I took the first chance we could to get out of the sand and into water. I know this isn't glamorous but the ocean wasn't looking too good today. They clearly hadn't cleaned up the coastline for beach season yet so there won't be any photos. I don't wanna do any more damage to the Jersey Shore's already glowing reputation.
