As the sprinkles & light showers scattered the area, 10 courageous hikers eager to get out on an unseasonably warm morning, gathered around the trail head for instructions. The temperature was well into the mid 50’s with some moderate breeze off & on. The group then hiked out in a clockwise fashion on the loop trail. About a mile into the hike, the clouds were breaking up, rain had stopped, and the sun even broke through for a bit. Everyone seemed to be glad they made the decision to hike in spite of a little rain. After a short break, we continued to meander around the bay. Once we reached about the 2-mile marker, one hiker noticed 2 dear lying by the trees without a care in the world. Upon further observation and as they started to get up, we noticed there were actually about 5 dears. Dear in Harrison Bay are used to seeing people and are not skittish. After a few minutes, we continued on. At the 2.5 mile, we broke for a snack break & pictures, enjoying conversation & views of the bay. Our final 2 miles were uneventful, other than the breeze continued to get stronger but was appreciated by most. Everyone seemed to have a good time on the trail and most of the group then enjoyed lunch at Fresh Burger Grill. Enjoy the pictures.
