Sears Island, Searsport 11/14/2023

For the second time in two years, I have been forced to make a last minute change of plans due to a mechanical issue with the Islesboro ferry. Like last time, our backup plan today was once again Sears Island. We hiked some of the interior trails that I had not yet been on, and we walked along a portion of the southern shore. This is the perfect time of year to explore Sears Island as it isn't as crowded, and you don't have to worry about ticks.
