Pets, vehicles, and weapons are prohibited on trails This coastal strip of wilderness is a refuge for elk, black bear, and deer to name a few. The presence of pets or mechanized equipment disturbs wildlife in a natural setting. Rights of visitors who come to observe and enjoy the wildlife must also be respected. The presence of people also disturbs wildlife and has an impact on the trails. The larger the groups, the greater the long term effect.
Group size is restricted to a maximum of twelve hikers.
Break down into manageable units of less than twelve and depart from different trailheads. If logistics prevent this, enter trailhead at intervals of at least one hour and establish independent objectives and campsites at least one half mile apart. Do not build fires in driftwood pile Build your fire on the beach where the tide will erase the fire scar or in an existing fire ring. Fire built in driftwood piles may cause beach fires which are time consuming and hazardous to extinguish. Dismantle driftwood structures before you leave.
