Hardy Tree
Bluff Point State Park
Due to the rocky landscape along the coast here, as well as the weather conditions, not much can grow along the shore. This tree must be pretty hardy to survive here.
You are correct. That's one tough tree to survive at the shore. Must be able to stand violent winds and a high concentration of salt. Like your photo. While it is sunny, it looks distinctly chilly.
It was a great day for a hike along the shore. It wasn't too cold nor windy. We've had a very mild winter here this year, for which I'm grateful. Thanks for looking.

DeleteOur winter was unusually mild as well. This week is even spring-like with highs in the mid 60s. Time of hoist camera and go for a walk.
