The beach dunes are just past the trees on the right. Let's see if Bob knows this one, but he will have to think back to when his girls were younger Wink

There is a small street kinda like that in Florida. Looks like huge tree tunnel. Bet Donna H. knows where that one is... Jackie

Next to the High School. You continue on to where the road meets the creek and there is a dirt/sand parking area on the beach that the kids called "The Pit". Big deal to drive over there and eat their lunch when they were in school.

Sarah & I hiked around San Simeon Point last year and were bunches of stands like this. Almost too thick in places.

I'm told there was a stand like this near Sweet Springs in Los Osos but they all blew down during a storm long ago.

San Simeon Point is a real treat - I love the place. The Sweet Springs tree tunnel must have been before my time (but then I'm still really young ) Marc

Ok..that is REALLY cool, Marc! I remember one place, the Arboretum, where I encountered a tunnel like that....it actually had a prehistoric feel to it......very dense, lush, jungle-like. I loved the seclusion there, but to come out at the beach? OMG! Now THAT would be special!
Have you found spectacular places to ride in Bastrop??

LYM!
