The Fog Dodgers invite all residents and visitors of the Mendocino Coast to join us on our weekly group runs and walks. We have runners and walkers of all abilities (and even some bikers) and we have only one "rule" - we start at exactly 8:00 a.m. on Sundays. Exercise at your own pace (1/2 hour out, 1/2 hour back) and experience the fresh Mendocino coastal air.

Fog Dodgers provides a fun, safe way to explore some of our local trails and back roads and to meet new friends. You can find out where we're going to be by reading the bottom of last week's post, then clicking on the "Our Routes" tab above. We average 15-20 persons each Sunday and typically half will go to breakfast together afterwards at a nearby restaurant.

POMO BLUFFS - NOYO BAY


Well, so much for the pretty ocean views.  The ocean today was barely visible,  due to a thick, low fog. I don't think the fog bothered any of us though, just took away the normally beautiful ocean view.  Thanks to John, his pictures below kind of show the morning.

It seems as though our very wet winter might be over.  There's nice weather all next week and I've finally let the home fire go out.  The fog today was certainly more summer-like.

I've listed a bunch of future venues below.  It makes it easier for me, in planning without repeats, and it helps for guest bloggers, so that they don't have to guess on what to schedule next.  The list might always change though, so make it a practice to check on the venue just a little before Sunday.

May 28th, Lake Cleone - We haven't started from the lake for a long time but Nancy and I         checked it out recently and thought that it would work very nicely.  Near the end of Mill Creek Drive, at MacKerricher State Park.
June 4th, Caspar Logging Roads
June 11th, Noyo Headlands Trail - North
June 18th, Ward Avenue
June 25th, Noyo Headlands Trail - South
July 2nd, Caspar Logging Roads
July 9th, Pudding Creek Trestle

 NEXT SUNDAY, MAY 28TH @ 8:00 A.M.:   LAKE CLEONE,  We will start from the parking lot, right at the lake.  It's been a few years since we started from here.  It's a good starting point, giving you many options as to which way to go.

EVERY TUESDAY AND THURSDAY, GROUP RUN @ 7:00 A.M.: BIG RIVER LOGGING ROAD.
