SUMMARY:Tour 4: Sunset Hike @ Governors Point
DESCRIPTION:Just south of Bellingham\, where the forests of Chuckanut Mountain meet the Salish Sea\, lies one of the most extraordinary pieces of land in Whatcom County. Governors Point is a 98-acre coastal peninsula with nearly 9\,500 feet of marine shoreline along Chuckanut\, Pleasant\, and Samish Bays—and for decades\, many of us have admired it from the water or glimpsed it from the road. \nNow\, thanks to years of community commitment and advocacy\, and a remarkable donation from landowner Randy Bishop\, those 98 acres are protected forever as a future nature reserve. This is one of the last remaining undeveloped coastal forest habitats on the Salish Sea. \nThis summer\, we’re excited to invite the public for guided tours to preview the Governors Point trail before public access is established. Whether you come for the birds\, the beaches\, the sunset\, or simply to be among the first to walk these trails\, we hope you’ll join us! Governors Point is not currently open to the public outside of guided tours. \n  \nTour 4:  \nOne of the best ways to experience a place is to watch the sun go down over it. On this tour well hike a couple of miles of quiet\, forested trails before emerging at the beach just in time for the sunset—then make our way back to the cars before dark. Expect narrow trails\, some steep sections\, and some stair climbing. Led by our Outreach and Events Coordinator\, Kendra Schmiedeskamp. \n  \nRegister: TOUR FULL. If you would like to be put on the waitlist\, please email alex.d@whatcomlandtrust.org or call 360-218-2996. \nAfter registering\, you’ll receive a confirmation email with a link to our waiver form and directions to our meeting point. \nTo give the maximum number of people a chance to attend\, please sign up for one session only. \n  \nWhat to bring: A water bottle\, backpack\, and headlamp. \nPlease note there are no bathroom facilities at Governors Point. \n  \nLearn more about Governors Point: Watch Video \n \n
