Westspit Braddock Bay

Late November Day on the West Spit

Waves have been crashing and spray whipping up along the sand bar, wind now coming in from the northwest while deep blue L. Ontario churns and boils. The west spit of Braddock Bay is less than a mile trail through weathered and splintering cottonwood trees planted at least a half century ago. The trail winds through live trees interspersed with white snags looking a bit scraggled and lonely against the gray and white clouds. The roaring wind is a sign that more wild weather is coming. Today the cold wind brought in some horizontal snow and despite a warming trend predicted, it will likely be one of the last days of the fall.
