Schedule of Planned Walks and Index of Completed Walks
This is the rough plan for the next few walks, depending on the weather and permission from property owners. Each Coast Walk is about a mile long. I try to do each one in a day, but it often takes a couple of days to cover the distance if it is challenging terrain or full of interesting things. If you’d like to join me on any of these segments, we can either meet at the spot you’d like to talk about, or you can walk along with me. (If you aren’t able to scramble down cliffs or over seaweed-covered boulders, I can also meet you on dry land for an interview.) I do need to know in advance who will be joining me, and can only meet with one or two people per walk, so please use the ‘Contact’ tab above to set up the meeting.
