Description:

 

I was noticing that the Trips Agenda was looking a bit empty in the time of the Covid, so I came up with a trip that should appeal to everybody, with a few exceptions: (1) If you have to work during the week, sorry about that. The beach gets pretty full during the weekend so I thought I’d better do it during the week. (2) Wreck Beach is officially a “clothing optional” beach, so if you are uncomfortable being naked, then wear clothes. If you are uncomfortable wearing clothes, then be naked. If you are uncomfortable under both of the above conditions, maybe this trip is not for you. The Leader will probably not be naked. I am a CWBG, a Certified Wreck Beach Guide, so you will be safe. We will practice deciding what we want to do, whether sitting under a shady tree, splashing about in the ocean, or going for a long hike to Trail #7, Trail #4, or even to the almost unknown Booming Grounds Trail. This is all Beginner Friendly, Low Output, and Low Carbon Footprint. Equipment needed includes shoes, clothes, suntan lotion, sun glasses, a hat, lunch, and something to drink. We will not be trying to provide rides; it’s your problem to get to the #6 trail at 10:00 am. As a concession to Covid we will be staying 2m away from people not in our bubble, we will not be sharing food, and you can wear a mask if you want, though there is probably enough wind down there to protect you from viruses. If you are experiencing any of the symptoms of Covid you should not come on this trip. You might not make it back up the stairs if you are very short of breath.

Warning: Don’t plan to take pictures. Though it is plenty scenic down there, the nakeds do not like you taking pictures.

No pre-trip meeting. Please sign up if you think you might be coming. If you have any questions, feel free to email me. I like emails. Or you could post on the trips notice board so we could share your questions.
