Don't Get Your Feet Wet

Don't Get Your Feet Wet
HFF !! ...

The path to Head Harbour Lightstation is up this stairway and then over some small rugged islands; access to these stairs is across a sandbar that is only passable at low tide. Unless visitors there make a quick dash over-and-back, they are stuck for 12 hours ... until the next falling tide exposes the bottom of this stairway. This is not water for wading; high/low tidal range is about 7 meters. Nor is the weather often calm and sunny -- foggy and with dangerous waves is more the norm.

... oh there are plenty of warning signs: in the parking lot, and leading down to the sandbar, and even one at the top of the stairway (which I cropped out) ... probably anyone clumsy enough to get trapped on the islands would get laughed out of local Canadian courts ...

... Am I blaming "the internet" and social media for everything? But it seems to me that people are taking less responsibility nowadays, rather than more ...
