With so little snow in December we were able to hike dry trails.    Since the hills were often muddy, we enjoyed hiking the Rivers Trail from the west end. 

We hiked along the dike for 3 km, then we turned and hiked a single track through the marsh out to the beach, 

For much of the year the area has wide sandy beaches from the airport to near Tranquille, an area I call the West Beaches,  

A few images of the hike are shared here.    click an image for a lightbox view and a caption.  

We will be hiking the Rivers Trail from the east end (Aviation Way) while the mild winter persists.
