If you know your national park beaches, this bonus puzzler for the month of September shouldn't tax your brain too much.
Shuck all your clothes and wade where it's shallow
On a shoreline named like a chasm in shadow.
Rangers will not bother you there,
And other bathers will not stop to stare.
Check back with Traveler tomorrow for the answer and an explanation of the clues.

It is our goal to see all the National Parks. We are on our 4 or 5 National Park Passport book and hope to complete both of them by the end of 2012. The only one I can think of that we may miss is on Guam. But the mystery beach is a new one. I was not aware the NPS allowed nude beaches. I'll have to check this out personally, Ha, Ha.
Below Lincoln Rd and below the Presidio. Baker Beach is to the west. Marshal's beach is the shoreline between the Presidio and the foot of the Golden Gate Bridge. Every San Francisco native is naked. Some tourist stay shy and covered. It's also referred to as "Nasty Boys Beach". The boys are not nasty, but they are playful.
"The small number of naturists at Gunnison pales in comparison to the thousands that can be found on Lighthouse Beach at Fire Island NS on a hot summer Saturday."
Wondering if this comment was from someone who has ever visited Gunnison Beach. I would think, from what I have experienced, and heard from those that have been to both, is that Gunnison attracts many more people than Firehouse. Not that I am trying to turn this into some kind of competition, but Gunnison attracts upwards of 5000 on a nice sunny summer weekend. Awesome beach where you can enjoy the sun and water au natrual!! Can't wait for the summer!!
P.S. Heard Lighthouse is a great beach too :)
