My mother, Miranda, and I had planned a canoe crossing to Sand Island from Meyers Beach but my mother's large puppy wouldn't sit nice, so we decided to go hiking instead. The only mainland campsite was 4.6 miles from Meyers beach. Didn't sound like much, but there were huge hills the entire way. Real nice terrain and views though. Also the campsite was great, right on a private sand beach. The title image at the top of this diary is a sunset Miranda photographed from our campsite. Learned my lesson about overpacking gear

We had a great time! Thanks to everyone that came. Here are a couple pictures for those that couldn't make it. We built a driftwood platform by moving several tons of sand and ailes by poking sticks in the ground. It was fun.
