When You Come to A Fork ...

In the immortal words of the great philosopher/catcher/left fielder Yogi Berra, "when you come to a fork in the road (or trail), take it." In this case, it's both the beginning and end of a loop trail on the south side of Jupiter Inlet Outstanding Natural Area. It doesn't matter if you go left or right. Just take it. For totally arbitrary reasons, we go left and down the bluff to the Intracoastal Waterway. The Bureau of Land Management's planning document for the site describes this section as "disturbed," meaning it's not in its natural condition. Still, there are some interesting hardwood trees, includinng some old live oaks, papaya and a paradise tree or two. Oh and it's a cool walk along the banks of Indian River. And there are some other cool things down there, too, as we'll see.
