There are so many trails to choose from when hiking at Nickerson State Park in Brewster. We love to park in one of the lots and then meander down trails and decide as we go. Having the AllTrails app on your phone helps a lot.
This hike we started at the parking lot of Little Cliff Pond and then went out onto other ones. So much fun exploring new trails.
We were driving home from the gym yesterday morning when the skies lit up into these gorgeous sunrise colors. We quickly took a little detour by Hemenway Landing and it was spectacular! Did you get to see sunrise yesterday?
When Phil put on his favorite boots for hiking in the snow a couple of days ago, the sides gave out and the whole boot inside fell apart. It was just so sad. It was like losing an old and trusted friend.
Those boots have seen many trails in Rocky Mountain National Park and here on Cape Cod. There were many times when we went snowshoeing up to the top of the mountain trail that leveled out at 11,000 feet and then back down again. What an exciting and exhilarating hike that was. Wow!
So, with sadness these boots were taken to the transfer station and said good-bye to. Luckily we each liked our boots so much that we bought 2 pairs way back when. So we are all set with new boots ready for new hikes and hopefully, new snowshoeing adventures!
This is one of my favorite trails that leads to the beach on the bayside. It’s so pretty with the tall reeds and the beach and trail all covered in snow.
Yesterday we woke up to 3-4” of new snow and it was so pretty. Not enough to go snowshoeing, but just enough to get some pretty photos in the snow. We’ve had a lot of snow in the past couple of weeks here on the Cape!
The views of Cliff Pond at Nickerson State Pond are always so pretty. From there you can choose to hike Little Cliff Pond or take the longer trail around Cliff Pond.Have you ever been to Cliff Pond?
I always look forward to this time of year when lots of Christmas ornaments have been hung from the branches at Wiley Park. (Click on blog link for other photos.)
The ornaments are so pretty and varied. I usually like the Cape Cod ones best, but being an M&M fan, I had to pick this one this year.
Have you walked through Wiley Park this winter?
It feels like such a magical place and such a fun walk… looking at all of the beautiful Christmas tree ornaments!
