Our 2nd stop on the shuttle bus ride was Elephant Seal overlook. Our trip to Point Reyes was coincidentally, perfectly timed for viewing adult male & female elephant seals with their pups. The short trail to the overlook was gravel and narrow. As always, the rangers were very friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging. We used binoculars to view the elephant seals from the overlook. As many of you know, all my photos are taken with my iPhone. This particular occasion would have been better captured by a better camera. Alas, I hope you can get the idea from the photos below…
Above are some fun facts about elephant seals from the Point Reyes National Seashore educational brochure. Below is a crossword puzzle to test your knowledge.
