Play It Safe, Stay Off Fort Fisher's "Rocks"-- Part 2

"The Rocks" is a man-made rock jetty crossing the former channel of New Inlet from the tip of Federal Point (Confederate Point during the war).  It was Fort Fisher's job to protect blockade runners using it and to keep the Union ships at bay.

It is topped by aging concrete and is a favorite site for fishermen, locals, tourists and crabbers.  However, in many places there are gaping holes revealing the rocks and further out the concrete topping gives way to sharp-edged algae covered rocks.  Very slippery and dangerous.

Rising tides periodically strand walkers on it.

I haven't been a long distance on it, but the part near the shore has those gaping holes.
