This is a nice hike. Great views of both the coast and Inverness Ridge. There aren't many spots on Point Reyes where one can see both Mount Vision, Mount Wittenberg and Firtop. It's usually too cloudy/foggy/misty anyways for such a vista. I gave an older lady a band-aid for her blister as she was 1.5 miles into the loop going the opposite direction of me when I was almost done. That blister looked rough, too. Very red and already open. I hope she's not regretting the hike too much. : rambo : I saw a nice herd of about 3 dozen elk, but they were about 3/4 mile away on the other side of a large drainage, and not much else in terms of wildlife. A few LGBs like dark-eyed juncos, some ravens, and a few coveys of California quail.
There was about a 3/4-mile stretch that was just wading through poison oak and stinging nettle. I was wearing shorts, and my legs are still fairly torn up. And itchy. The native flora redeemed itself in my eyes after I ate about two dozen blackberries I found growing on the trail. Pics soon.
