View from the Salt Pond Visitors Center in Eastham

EASTHAM – For the month of March, the Cape Cod National Seashore will exhibit photographs by artist Mark McGrath as part of its “Perspectives: Seeing Cape Cod National Seashore through Art” series.

The photographs McGrath has selected depict the beauty of the Cape, the diversity of the landscape, and the recreational adventures and activities that immerse visitors into the resources of the seashore.

Since retiring to Cape Cod in 2003, McGrath has hiked extensively on the Outer Cape with his GPS and camera.

He leads hikes for local hiking clubs and spends many hours alone on the trails.

With his wife Patti, McGrath has hiked the entire perimeter of Cape Cod.

McGrath will host a half hour program on March 6 at 1:30 p.m. at the Salt Pond Visitor Center in Eastham.

During a slide show that includes links to maps and trail descriptions, he’ll reveal his seven favorite hikes and share his adventures.

The program will be followed by a reception from 2 to 4 p.m. in the Salt Pond exhibit room.

The program and reception are free and open to the public.

The Salt Pond Visitor Center is located at the intersection of Rt. 6 and Nauset Road and is open daily from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
