Description
A narrow finger of land juts out into the Neuse River at the Pine Cliffs Recreation area in the Croatan National Forest. The setting sun makes the sky blaze orange and creates a silhouette or the bald cypress trees on the point. The distant tree line seen along the horiizon are located at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point.
This popular recreation area took heavy damange during Hurricane Florence and has been closed to public access for several years. Recently the blockade closing the road to this location has been opened, though much of the damage can still be seen. The location of the trail hed for the Nesiok Hiking Trail, the trail has been rerouted as many fallen trees still block the trail in this area. Hopefully the National Forest Service and the Carteret County Wildlife Clug will be able to clear the trail in the near future.
