My husband and I hiked this trail on 5/22/11. More blue markers needed, especially on the rock portion of the trail.

Dear Carrie,
Thank you for your comment! We look forward with great anticipation to the fungi id. Let us know if/when you reach the “The Pond” we have yet to experience that side of the island and are very interested in your future journey. Kindest regards, George and Kristin- Owners/Innkeepers.

For George and Kristin, Came across you pics of the hike on great Wass Island, while I was trying to find the disc that holds my photos of various hikes there. I will send the photo on of the fungus on the pine tree to our mushroom group that meets out of Lancaster Pa and have them id it. There is a Maine Mushroom Book that would id it also. We have found to hike at the beggining of low tide, or before, and take the Ocean hike out and have kept going beyond, around the point, the cliffs become very high, and we would like to get out to what is called The Pond eventually.
