A party of 10 Cruisers set our in our dinghies to Coco Bay.
The men went in the front bushwhacking the path with machetes and the women follow up cutting back smaller branches.
The first section went over the sand dune
Then it was a walk around a dried section of a pan
The rest was island scrub and trees.
Clark, Ed and Carol
The path was widened from impassable to about 3 feet wide
A lot of bending and cutting branches off at the root
Cathy of Whatif
And me
Duane was at the front with a machete, this is across the island on the west side. We scoured the beach for netting and items to mark the trail especially the area around the pan
The marker for the start of the trail on the west side
The bushwhacking took 3 hours and the walk back through the path was a pleasure, and the path well marked especially along the difficult sections.
Thanks Karen and Duane for the lift
Nice photos of Karen
Duane driving us
Take Care
