Just a five minute drive from the crazy crowds of LL Bean and outlet store shopping in Freeport, Maine is Wolfe’s Neck Woods State Park, donated to the state by Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence M.C. Smith in 1969.
More than 200 acres of marshes, open fields, and a coastal forest take you home to sanity.. The park's trails meander through white pine and hemlock forests, a salt marsh estuary, the rocky shorelines of Casco Bay and the Harraseeket River.
Our Maine trip in October was all about dreary weather, but it didn't hide the beauty.

It might not be obvious at first but running across the center of this photo is the Highline Trail. Can you see it? Two hikers have stopped near the cemter of the photo. The man in the black jacket is taking a photo of the woman in a white jacket. Can you see them? Visible also is a rope along the trail so hikers can hang on if they choose. Highland trail which traverses the Garden Wall is one of the most popular trails in Montana’s Glacier National Park. With sections like this that have shear drops off beneath the path, the trail is also one of the most hair raising. Here the trail is carved into the cliffside. It is a thrilling hike but is not for those who fear heights. This picture was taken from a pretty good distance as I was on the overlook at Oberlin Bend on the Going-to-the-Sun Highway.
While Ballintemple is a Nursery for trees run by the semi-state body, Coilte, it is open to visitors and walkers and part of its delight are the beautiful views of the Blackstairs and the Wicklow Mountains, it has gorgeous forest trails.
On August 5, 2021, we went on a hike through the Harold N. Peek Preserve. This preserve is part of an organization called Natural Lands. It is 4.9 miles from our house and this was the first time we had been to visit.
From their website:
"Natural Lands is a non-profit organization that saves open space, cares for nature, and connects people to the outdoors in eastern Pennsylvania and southern New Jersey. We’ve been at it since the early 1950s and, today, nearly five million people live within five miles of lands under our permanent protection."

At the end of the trail in Smuggler Cove, one can look out at the Salish Sea. Vancouver Island is on the other side and the Pacific Ocean is beyond. On this inclement day, a walk through the forested trail was most enjoyable. And, the rest at the end of the trail was inviting.
While sitting, someone peaked out at the end of another trail. While they were standing and taking it all in, that moment gave me the chance to set up and grab a single shot.
The Door Trail hike in Badlands National Park is only about a mile, but the terrain is variable. Following the yellow markers insures that you don't get lost in the maze.
