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

Caspar Creek and Beach
It was a good morning for running or walking, 57 degrees, overcast and calm.  The last time we met here, I mentioned how bad the loose rock was on Road 500, the one starting out uphill.  I said that on our next visit here, we would start out on Road 600, the one going downhill.  Well, we did so but unfortunately, I think it was worse.  So, next time (Sept. 3rd), I don't know what we will do.  Maybe some of the loose rock will have been kicked off of the roadway, hope so.
