Fort Wetherhil Page 2

August 8, 2009

In the afternoon, a number of the group walked over to the far side of the fort ruins. Down a steep hill is a great swimming spot. There is plenty of rocky surface to sit on, and the entry into the water is not bad. I had to go back and get the camera, so I had a good angle down at everyone.

There was a small inlet that concentrated the wave power. Dan and Nicola particularly had fun with that.

Finally it was time to get out of the water (reluctantly)

Back at the main gathering, there was some serious ladder golf playing and observing
