a new boardwalk

Today felt like a good day to take a walk on the newly completed boardwalk trail at the Hellcat Wildlife Observation Area.

I headed to Parker River National Wildlife Refuge late in the morning. That allowed me to explore the boardwalk and then walk the beach while the tide was heading out. While the old boardwalk consisted of two loops with stairs, the new boardwalk is fully wheelchair accessible. It is a single loop with 3 out-and-back spurs.

It was a delightful walk!

Here's the view from the end of one of the spurs of the boardwalk.
