Early last evening I drove over to Sable Falls and walked down the steps and path to the beach. My main purpose was to remember the sinking of the Fitzgerald 42 years ago -- but I also wanted to see what the beach looks like at the mouth of Sable River (Second Creek) after all the recent wave events. It does not look possible to walk east of the falls. The beach is littered with huge trees. All of the driftwood on the beach is covered in ice. It was a chilly (temps in the teens) evening, but beautiful.
You are invited to go on the hike with me...

Due to storm erosion, it is not easy to get down the beach. There are downed trees and a drop off of around three feet.
Heading back up to the car.
