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.

COASTAL TRAIL - MIDDLE - We started out from the dirt parking lot behind the Ft Bragg fire station and headed north along the coast trail. Hikers were Doug, Kim, & Bowie, Nancy, Tom, Diana, Jeff, Sky, John, Charlene, Joe, Ginny, Terry, and two hikers from long ago, Beth Bosc and Bob Deines. The morning was a bit cold, a little wind, but we all warmed up soon.

Five of the hikers plus Toni went out to breakfast at the Homestyle Cafe. Note that service was a bit slow because they had just received some takeout orders that kept the kitchen very busy.

Here are Johns photos for the day:
