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.

CASPAR LOGGING ROADS

A beautiful morning, just right for running and walking.  We met at Jackson State Forest Road 500, at the junction with Road 600.  I should have noticed that all was not well, when driving to our starting point, I noticed lots of dust in my rear view mirror.  The road is not normally very dusty.


Well, the dust was bad because the road had recently been graded and it made for a terrible, very rocky run and walk.  If we return to the Caspar Logging Roads, we will try going down Road 600, rather than up Road 500.  I hope that 600 is better.

Present today: Jan, Charlene, Ron, John, Cheryl, Nancy T., Roger, Joe, Fran, Nancy and Tom (11), and Toni joined us for breakfast.

John sent some lovely "moody" photos of Caspar.  It seems that once again we're not seeing as much fog as we had historically, so it's almost nostalgic to see the fog.  Thanks John.

Also have great July 4th.
