The Outer Cape

Pole Road closure must have been in thepast, as far as I know it has been open 24/7 this year, at least until another chick hatches down at the end.

Pole road closed at decision point - light or north beach. You can go out to north beach 24/7 but you can only go to the light and hatches between 8am and 8pm. On Weds 6/17, I actually had to call the ranger station at 9:05 am to see if it was ok to remove the barriers. They did allow me to remove the barriers and when they did come out to check hatches harbor they said they were sorry for not coming out at 8am to remove the barriers themselves. Still can't understand why they are restricting night access out there. By the way excellent fishing out there on Thurs 6/18 good size bass chasing tinker macks up on the beach. Fortunately it was well after 8am.
