Many people feel a bit nervous to set off on a self guided hiking vacation. Well, I must assure everyone that Walk the Bay is truly a very special self-guided trip. It is virtually impossible to get lost. To illustrate the point, friends invented the t-shirt map. All you have to do is be able to put on your t-shirt front to back and then follow the directions.

Prior to offering Walk the Bay to the general (and paying) public, I enlisted wonderful friends to walk every inch of the trail. All walkers had assignments, including: check all restrooms and water faucets, make directions and maps totally accurate, locate hot spots for birds, photography, or food. I am forever indebted to these intrepid walkers.
