Thank you Catherine & Richard for a fabulous hike at First Landing State Park!
Catherine brought homemade candy-coated peanuts for everyone, and Steve brought lovely family members. We hiked roughly 7 miles after meeting at the 64th Street boat ramp. The hike began on the Cape Henry Trail, we crossed 64th Street and hiked Long Creek, and then looped around to the Osprey Trail. Then we reconnected to Long Creek which led us back to the Cape Henry Trail and back to the boat ramp where we enjoyed our picnic lunch.
