Cleo in Discovery Park

Although we set out for Discovery Park at around 4 PM, communication difficulties with the foster of Cleo resulted in our not starting until almost 8 PM.  The trail led us on a loop through the woods, where it is unlikely any person would have gone on purpose, and then the trail dropped over a cliff.  This bluff falls about 250 feet over 500 lateral feet as the land falls toward the beach.  The top is sandy and unstable, and springs pop out of the hillside near the bottom.  I followed Kelsy down.  At the beach, the tide was high, completely covering the beach, leaving no place to search.  It seems Cleo must have gone down the bluff in search of water because the uplands are very dry.  Kelsy performed well, eagerly following a scent trail 24 hours old.  I did not receive any independent confirmation that she was on the right trail.  My sense, based on past experience, is that Kelsy was on the correct trail.
