Went by Crab NWR last sat. there is a lot of damage from the wind storm. There are trees uprooted all over the place.

Both fishing docks on the west side of the cosway are missing, I found one upside down about 300 yards away on the east side of the cosway.

On the west side just before the cosway.

It is sad to see it tore up so bad.

I have a friend who had just parked his camper there that morning before the storm hit. It was destroyed!!!

Bummer! I hear the Campground and Marina are closed until further notice.
