4.8 miles of hiking • 500' elevation gain •
I wasn't very pleased with the failed beach hike so we stopped of to do a bit more hiking on the Banks to Vernonia trail. The wind was still whipping the tops of the trees, which spooked us a bit, due to our near death snag falling experience, but we still managed to enjoy this short hike. We stopped early as my wife was feeling drained from the Sunset Beach wind battering experience earlier in the day! Definitely an interesting day, but we're home and cozy now!
