I choose a little beach that is off the Lake Champlain bike path! I found this spot when I was on a 10 mile run with my teammates! We call the run where we run on the bike path “Waterfront”. While running water front I noticed a little nook beach that looked really pretty. I went back on my own long run to the beach and saw people wind surfing and knew this would be a cool phenology spot:)
The beaches official name is “Hobo Beach” but I wanted to clarify that I did not know this until after I picked my spot. Don’t let the name mislead you it’s a very pretty location!
Directions
How I reach my spot is to first, run through Redstone Campus and continue left until you reach Cliff street. Then at the bottom of the hill take another left and continue until you reach an intersection. Then cross diagonally right down Locust St. Once you reach the bottom of that street take, a left onto Pine street and continue until you reach a Cumberland farms. Down that street there will be an overhead bridge. You will want to climb the stairs to get on the bike path. Once on the bike path, follow it until you reach the beach!
Observations
At the location there is both beach and common woody plants. There are large trees right in the sand with some roots exposed. There are also some smaller shrubs and other plants lining the bike path before it reached the trees that line the beach. There are also some aquatic plants in the area that I plan on identifying in trips to come!
