Trail crossing Duffy's Gulch Creek

Spiderweb wet from the morning fog. (Wish the background had come out better, the web itself looks great)

The Foxgloves were in bloom and were found anywhere the pines allowed sunlight. Stinging nettles were also common along the trail and I got stung a couple of times. Ouch.

Stream crossing shortly before Wheeler Camp

Field of foxglove. (and the only white foxglove that I saw all day). Foxglove are not native to California and have escaped to the wild from domestic gardens.

Board assisting crossing of Jackass Creek near Wheeler camp. Wheeler camp is the remains of a 50's lumber mill town.

Approach to the beach along Jackass creek.

Two deer near the beach

Jackass creek carving into the back end of the beach before emptying into the ocean. Low tide seen here, at high tide the ocean spills over into this section of the beach. Couple of campers at the back of the beack.
