Hikes down to the tide pools have their rewards. When I get a peek at my destination, I’m grateful. In the back of my mind I’m thinking…
the hike back up is gonna be a doozie.

Nice shots, and I often feel the same way about the hike back up. 🙂
Thanks!
A good choice of pictures for this challenge!
Thank you so much!
Great post! As a kid, I remember spending hours exploring tide pools along the Northern CA coast. Seems like there was way more life in the tide pools than there is now. Is that also true where you are?
Thanks! Good question. In my opinion there are periods when the vibrancy and richness of tide pool life is greater than others. Is there a long term trend? I don’t know. I appreciate your question. If I learn anything about this I’ll let you know.
What I like about the hike is that it deeply informs you physically that you are likely to be the only one looking at those lovely tidepools
That’s right! Who wasn’t felt that anticipation deep in their core?
Love the tide pools.
